New 2000 Carver 530 Owner

Postby 77lundvall » October 25th, 2025, 6:07 pm

Me and a friend just bought a 2000 Carver 530 on an auction website.

The previous owner ran the engines while in the middle of replacing the water pumps for the engines, which damaged some exhaust components and pretty much all of the wiring in the engine room.

We are in deperate need of two "Elb:exhst rubr 6" 90deg" PN: 5162502.. wondering if there is an OEM part number for that or Carver exclusive.

..also need one "Pipe:frp 6x31"" PN: A0018184 and possibly a new port side muffler (if this one can't be repaired)

Yesterday, the day after the paperwork went through for the sale, we were served with a notice of violation from the harbor department marked "final warning" giving us until Monday to get the engines running.

Fines start at $100 the first day(Tuesday), then go $200, $600, $1000, $2000, and cap out at $3000/day the sixth day(Sunday Nov 2nd), so we're in a pretty big hurry to get things moving.

Vessel is located in Newport Beach. I'm currently in Seattle until Tuesday then driving down.

Vessel was also looted of anchor, chain, fenders, dinghy, batteries, and they drained the diesel tank.

We are in disagreement on which size chain to buy, I think it's 3/8" for this windless.. he thinks it's 5/16"
