2019 C37 Paint chipping and oxidizing

Postby lakeerierocks » August 2nd, 2021, 2:05 pm

We just bought our new to us C37 - had 38 hours on her, great shape. She has a black roof, grey hull. Looks like a Batmobile Boat! :)
The day we took possession, some dock mates of the previous owner told us that Carver had come out to repaint the top just 2 months earlier. At Carvers expense. We didn't think too much of it, though it was not disclosed by the previous owner. Everything passed inspection.

It is now 2 months later and the top part of our hull is chipping, cracking, oxidizing - like a 18" square piece! No idea why - we have only been washing the boat so far. We called the broker who told us to call Carver cause its a warranty issue. Duh.

But Carver is not exactly easy to get ahold of. They sold their assets, who is holding the liabilities and warranties? Anyone know? Any ideas?

Thank you!!

I hope I'm mistaken, but with the double sale of Carver and the discontinuing of the brand name, I fear you will not get any warranty support. Items built by others and installed by Carver should still be covered by the manufacturer (such as engines) if they are still within the warranty period.

Good Luck!
