New Carver owner

Postby MarkN » December 18th, 2023, 7:01 pm

Hi all,

Back in April 2023 we purchased our first launch in Kerikeri in the far north of New Zealand and have relocated it to the lovely Marlborough Sounds in the top of our South Island.

Big learning journey on the travel down our East Coast and a lot to learn in both the boats handling and engineering!

This boat was imported into Australia with petrols but re powered in 2011 with Yanmar 4LHA-STP on Hurst V drive’s.

Yet to see if it is correctly propped as was some anomalies with the engine installs after the removal of petrols.

Watch this space.

Regards Mark

I'd be interesting to see some performance and economy number with that power combo! Post up when you've gotten some hours under your belt and let us know how it's doing!

Welcome. MarkN Congratulations on your boat. I'll be visiting New Zealand coming up in March. Not looking forward to my almost 16 hour long nonstop flight. But I can't wait to visit. Maybe have to look you up. :-)
