Just bought my first Carver

Postby Hoover33 » June 24th, 2020, 8:39 pm

Hello All,
My wife and I just bought our first Carver this evening. A 1989 3467 Santego. First thing I did was find this forum so that we can gain any and all information about our 'new' boat. All info appreciated. I really know nothing about Carvers.

Thanks to all for the wishes. The boat is in Knoxville, so I guess I'll be learning the Tennessee River well. :captain:

Congrats and welcome aboard. Nice boat, and you've chosen a solid brand. Will you find some issues? of course you will, but that'll happen with all brands, even those coming right off the assembly line. We're here to help though if anything comes up, or you just want to make some changes. Hope you enjoy her.

Welcome Aboard. You've come to the right place. Lots of fine people here who are more than willing to share their knowledge with others.

Welcome aboard! Our previous boat was a 3067 Santego. The Admiral and I love the Santego’s and wish Carver still made them. Your going to have fun coming down the TN River. Your going to have several locks to lock through, but it’s nothing to worry about.
