New wife and I recently purchased a 2000 356 aft cabin. Also, new to this type and size vessel - a lot to learn; like, how to drive it...
Looking forward to the forum discussions and other useful information.
Our home is in Punta Gorda Isles, FL. Fortunately, we have a dock in the back yard - very convenient.
Any members in this area?

- Forum: Carver Yachts Forum - Model Discussion
Just a quick question to the other 3007 owners. I have a noticeable list to the right (looking to the front of the boat) when I fill the water. I understand that the tank is on that side, but has anyone done anything ingenious to solve this

- Posted by: USAFRet » July 14th, 2013, 12:40 pm
- Forum: General Repairs & Maintenance
Hi folks,
I discovered my windows leak while washing the boat this weekend. My wife found the wall fabric in a storage closet wet a few minutes after I was finished. They are narrow, 10ft long by 5' high sliders with metal frames. I'm guessing this was a problem with the previous owners because we found mold on the wall fabric and on some boxes in that closet.
I'll try to get closeup pictures of the tracks this week, but in the interim:
The tracks don't appear to have any silicone sealant around them. They don't look like they have been repaired. They appear to be rotted, but I may be seeing engineered cuts/drains so I don't want to go nuts with sealant until I know.
For permanent repairs - Are there seal kits I can purchase to simply swap out the seals?

View the latest post Rotary speaker switch in master stateroom
- Posted by: Luckyskiff » July 12th, 2013, 7:00 pm
- Forum: General Repairs & Maintenance
Hi everyone, I've recently purchased a 1997 355 AC and am starting to work on the fix list. In the master stateroom and bridge there is a rotary switch that I think controls stereo speakers. Neither of these switches work. Can anyone tell me what these switches are supposed to do and where I can get replacements? The switch has 6 wires connected to it; 2 green and 4 brown.
Thanks for any help.
Joe

Hello Carver Owners. We currently own a Mainship Sedan Bridge 40. We are in the process of buying a 1999 456, she is beautiful, and so roomy. She has twin 315 Cummins, 13.5 genset, around 400 hours on the engines, and around 850 on the genset. Shes always been in fresh water. We are about to have her surveyed, I was wondering if their are any certain things that we should look for. Thank you for you time.
Jeff

- Posted by: Nplbw » July 6th, 2013, 11:30 am
- Forum: General Repairs & Maintenance
I have a 2005 Carver 411 and the battery charger for the generator does not seem to be getting power to charge the battery. I have searched for a tripped breaker but can't find one. Does anyone have any suggestions? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Neil

- Posted by: iceman3500 » July 2nd, 2013, 10:22 pm
- Forum: Electrical
A couple quick questions:
When we plug our 3207 into shore power, the fridge should automatically kick over to the 120 volt right? If we are not going to be on the boat, do we shut down all the 12 volt with the master switch on the panel? Do we leave the 12 volt master on as well as the switch for the fridge? How about the battery switch? 1, 2, both or off?
Thanks.
