Mypleasure, if you will post your email address, I will send you several PDF's of Carver manuals from these years with wiring diagrams and other info. I don't know how to post an 8mb file here.
Anyone else who is interested, let me know. I will send.

Re: 1992 36 aft cabin wiring diagram
Is it possible your boat has (or had) an inverter?
That might be a reason why someone might have used a "ship/shore" switch in the manner you describe. NOT as really a "ship or shore" source, but as an easy way to shut down high current devices if they were running on an inverter and re-enable them when the inverter was not in use.

Re: 1992 36 aft cabin wiring diagram
Remember if this was done by a previous owner/mechanic etc, it is also possible they may have not used the correct color wiring, you will have to get an eyeball on the exact routing if possible......maybe do some continuity tests.
The above is strictly my opinion always based on years of doing...remember to support local business , it pays back.

Re: 1992 36 aft cabin wiring diagram
The boat never came with an inverter/charger, and the rotary switch is definitely OEM. The hot water breaker is at the bottom of the breaker panel and worked perfectly until I redid the wiring so that the incoming shore power goes directly to the inverter/charger and then feeds the breaker panel. For some reason I didn’t pay attention to the water heater wiring, so I’ll have to try and trace the water heater wiring from the heater to the panel. You all know what it’s like trying to trace boat wiring when there is only you, and the wiring just has to go through areas where you can’t see where it comes out. My arms just aren’t long enough to find the other end. I’m sure that I’ll find the wire’s tomorrow.
My email is agskinner@outlook.com if plittle2005 can send me that information. I can’t even figure out how to post pictures on this website yet? Computer dinosaur here.
Thanks again fellas, your always a great source of information!

Re: 1992 36 aft cabin wiring diagram
Got everything figured out once I had my thinking cap on right! Inverter is working as it should and hot water tank is making hot water. Hallelujah!
Thanks again for all the advice guys!

Re: 1992 36 aft cabin wiring diagram
So, what was the issue?? Did you have to change the wiring?

My Pleasure:
According to your post, apparently you once owned a 1989 Carver 4207, My wife and I currently own a 1988 Carver 4207, and need a wiring diagram for the boat. By chance, do you still have the wiring diagram for your 1989 Carver 4207, and if so, would you be willing to part with it? Please advise. Thanks!
Most sincerely,
TeamCarp
