ENGINES & DRIVE SYSTEMS B-1 GENERAL Carver Boat Corporation does not manufacture en gines, stern drives or v-drives. These components are built by manufacturers that are specialists in this field. Because of the technica I nature of the engine and drive systems, all manufacturers of these items require that warranty and service problems be taken directly to them for resolution.
underway, or while the generator is running, those awake should be extremely watchful for carbon monox ide accumulation in the cabin; especially the sleeping areas. Open forward facing windows or deck hatches to provide adequate fresh air ventilation. Keep hatches, windows, and doorways that face aft or towards the exhaust discharge closed. 5. Ventilate your cabin while underway. Open a forward hatch, porthole, or window to allow airto travel through the cabin.
prop slip of 30%, would move the boat at a rate of 24 miles per hour. 8 - 5 PROPELLERS Knowledge of the propeller is most easily gained through better understanding of the terminology used to refer to the aspects of propeller size and performance. A. Diameter Diameter is twice the distance from the center of the prop shaft to the extreme tips of propeller blades. Increasing or decreasing propelle r size will have a di rect bearing on the RPM's an engine will develop.
E. Fuel Gauge The Fuel Gauge displays the level of fuel that is present in the fuel tank(s). See section E for more detailed information on fuel gauge operation. F. Power Trim Gauge A. Tachometer The Tachometer indicates the speed of the engine in revolutions per minute. This speed is not the boat speed nor necessarily the speed of the propeller. The Tachometer may not register zero with the Ignition Key in the OFF position. Boats equipped with MerCruiser Stern Drives also have a "Power Trim Gauge.
Ignition Switch(s) and aI/ instruments, controls, etc. should be protected from the weather when not in use. Carver offers appropriate weather covers for each model. Excessive exposure can lead to gauge and Ignition Switch difficulties. Electronic gauges are affected by static electricity that builds-up on the glass face. Periodic washing of the gauge face with warm water and mild liquid detergent will help eliminate the static electricity problem and improve gauge accuracy.

CONTROL SYSTEMS C-1 GENERAL The remote control systems which permit operation of the engine's throttle and shift mechanisms consist of three major components, the control, the throttle and the shift cables. The various types of controls and their operation are discussed in section C-2. The cables are all push-pull type. Two cables are required. One connects the remote throttle control to the carburetor and the other connects the remote shift control to the outdrive or transmission shift linkage.
Other lubrication, adjustment and maintenance instruc tions are included in the information provided by the control manufacturers.
STEERING SYSTEMS 0-1 GENERAL 0-2 'OUTDRIVE POSITION INDICATOR A. Mechanical Steering Some Morse helm assemblies are equipped with a rudder position indicator. This device indicates the location of the stern drive relative to the straight ahead position. The position indicator operates mechanically. Proper adjustment and free operation are essential if proper rudder position indications are to be provided.
time, additional bleeding ofthe system may be required. See a dealer; adjustments on a power steering unit must be performed by a qualified service technician. Proper power steering fluid level must be maintained. See the information provided by the power steering manufacturer for additional information. D - 5 POWER STEERING MAINTENANCE Make a periodic inspection of all steering cables, link age and helm assemblies.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS E-1 or the main circuit protection device (either fuse or circuit breaker). GENERAL All electrical equipment on Carver boats operates on either 12 volt DC or 120 volt (220 volts on 50 Hertz models) AC electrical power. An understanding of the systems and their operation can be easily gained through a study of the major components which com prise the electrical circuitry. Section E describes the 12 volt system and the related operation.
3. The black leads from the 12 volt distribution panel labelled A must be connected to the negative (-) battery terminal. 4. If the boat is equipped with a battery charger, connect the red leads labelled C1, C2, and C3 to the positive (+) terminals of batteries 1 & 2 (and the generator battery if so equipped). Also, connect the black ground wire C 1 to the negative (-) terminal of any battery. B2.
respective battery. plus any electrical charges supplied to it, will be indicated on the Voltmeter. IMPORTANT: Be sure the Voltmeter Switch is in the OFF position when not in use, especially while the boat is unattended. The voltmeter is independent of the Battery Selector Switch and if left on, it will drain the charge from the batteries. Voltmeter - The Voltmeter will register the amount of charge available at the battery or batteries.
the related floor panel. See the locator drawing in Section 0 for exact location of the water tank(s). B. Interior Equipment The MAIN circuit breaker protects all12 volt distribution circuitry. There are also individual circuit breakers for items such as the refrigerator, stereo, inte rior lights, etc. A separate fuse may be mounted in the cockpit when the optional cockpit washdown system is installed. Section G has additional information regarding the cockpit washdown system. D.
- ing in the shore power cord may cause the MAIN breaker to trip. To avoid this power spike, turn off all MAIN breakers before plugging in the shore power cord(s). Securely connect the power inlet of the boat and the shore power receptacle. If the connection is broken and later re-secured, the circuit breaker will trip. Connections must be secureforuninterrupted dockside service.
E· 10 ELECTROLYSIS & CORROSION Two types of electrically induced underwater corro sion occasionally affect boats and the related compo nents. This corrosion appears as surface pitting or de terioration. These two types are as follows: A. Electrolysis C. Polarity indicator If the dockside power source is incorrectly wired and has the polarity reversed, the MAIN circuit breaker will sense the voltage difference between the neutral and ground terminal blocks, this will trip the MAIN breaker.

USING GASOLINE THAT CONTAINS ALCOHOL IS DANGEROUS The petroleum industry has been reducing the amount of lead in gasoline in an effort to conform to Federal Air , Quality Standards. Alcohol is being blended with gasoline as a substitute for lead. While blending alcohol with gasoline increases the octane level of the fuel, it also creates many safety and performance problems for boaters.
FUEL SYSTEMS F • 1 GASOLINE FUEL SYSTEMS Carver fuel systems meet or exceed the requirements, that were in effect at the time of its manufacture, of the U.S. Coast Guard, Boating Industry Association and the American Boat and Yacht Council. Periodically, remove the small screens from the fuel vent(s) and clean the vent and screen of any dirt, etc. Replace screens securely after cleaning. The screens will help prevent insects and other foreign matter from contaminating the fuel and fuel system. D.
Periodically inspect all connections for leakage and all hoses for damage or deterioration. Replace as neces sary. produce sparks. c. Put out all lights and galley fires. d. Position the Battery Selector Switch to OFF (if boat is so equipped). 3. Before starting to fuel: a. Ensure thatthe boat is moored securely. b. Close all ports, windows, doors and hatches. c. Have all passengers exit the boat except the fuel handler. d.
FIGURE F1 TYPICAL FUEL TANK SYSTEM OMSB CARVER F3
WATER SYSTEMS G -1 GENERAL A. Priming the System The fresh water supply system consists of supply tank(s), distribution lines and a distribution pump. A water fill plate is provided fon the deck. Some systems have two or more tanks and require slow filling to allow the water to transfer between tanks. Each water tank is equipped with an overboard vent. Monitor the overboard vent(s) while filling the water tank. When the tank is almost full, water will spurt out of the vent.
manual. Refer to this information for additional opera tion and service details. Periodically remove and clean the screens in the water tank vent(s). Also, clean the thru-hull vent fitting(s) of any dirt, plastic particles, etc. Always replace the screens after cleaning. The boat may also be equipped with an engine heat exchanger. The heat exchanger is optional on 25' models and standard on 27' models.
~ Section 0 for location of the Cockpit Washdown con nection}. This system allows utilization ofthe surround ing sea water for cleaning purposes. A special hose is provided that has two male ends. One end connects to the cockpit or aft deck female fitting. If desired, a nozzle can be connected to the other end. After con necting the hose, activate the pump by means of the Washdown Switch; normally located in the cockpit area.
VENTILATION & DRAINAGE H - 1 ENGINE COMPARTMENT VENTILATION H - 2 CABIN VENTILATION All Carver boats are equ ipped with engine compartment ventilation. This system is designed to meet or exceed the requirements (in effect at the time of manufacture) of the U.S. Coast Guard, the Boating Industry Associa tion, and the American Boat and Yacht Council. Certain cabin side windows on Carver boats are de signed to slide open to provide adequate cabin ventila tion.
B. Bilge Pumps Bilge Pumps are provided in the bottom of the hull to remove any water that might accumulate in the hull. The Bilge Pumps are controlled by the Bilge Pump Switches on the Helm Control Panel (see Section E for a detailed description of the Bilge Pump Switches and the Locator Drawing in Section 0 for exact location of the Bilge Pumps). Some models are equipped with Bilge Pump Indicator Lights that wi" illuminate when ever the Bilge Pumps are operating.
INTERIOR EQUIPMENT 1-1 HEADS D. Crown Electric Head (Optional on 27' models) The various anti-pollution laws presently in effect have necessitated the use and availability of a wide variety of heads. The heads that have been factory installed in Carver boats have been chosen to provide reasonable longevity, and reliable service at a realistic cost. The Crown electric head is activated by depressing the HEAD Switch. The head will continue to flush as long as the HEAD Switch is manually depressed.
1- 2 REFRIGERATORS I - 4 STEREO EQUIPMENT Dual voltage refrigerators are standard equipment on most Carver boats. These units will operate on 120 volt (220 volts on 50 Hertz models) AC power while the boat is connected to dockside power. The refrigerator will automatically transfer to 12 volt operation when dock side power is not available. A cassette stereo with an AM/FM radio is provided on 21', 23' & 25' models and is available as optional equipment on 27' models.
EXTERIOR & SAFETY EQUIPMENT J-1 SPOTLIGHT J-4 DEPTH SOUNDERS A properly operating spotlight is essential for safe cruisi ng at night. Carver offers electrically controlled spot . lights as optional equ ipment. The spotlights use electric motors and helm switch controls to direct the spotlight beam. The spotlights also can be controlled from both stations on a dual station boat. See Section E and the spotlight manufacturer's literature for additional infor mation.
IMPORTANT: Optimum efficiency is obtained when operating at a 4 to 5 degree trim angle. Utilizing too much "Bow Down" trim tab can reduce operating effic iency and cause substantial steering and handling diffi culties. Be extremely careful when running in a follow ing sea. The effect of tim planes is amplified under such conditions. Steering and handling difficulties can result from improper trim tab usage, especially in a following sea.
J-7 SWIM PLATFORMS } on the platform. An anchor retainer bracket and clevis are included to secure the anchor while not in use. See Figure J1 for bow pulpit and anchor mounting informa tion. Carver offers a fiberglass swim platform with ladder for all models. The transom of the boat must be properly reinforced for the swim platform installation. See a Carver dealer for additional information.
SEATING & WEATHER COVERS . K -1 V-BERTH FILLER CUSHIONS Whenever applicable, Carver provides a drop-in cush ion forthev-berth area as standard equipment. This will provide additional berth area and still permit easy access fo surrounding compartments and area when the cushion is not in place. after washing to remove all soap film. Periodic spraying of the seats with Lysol Spray Disinfectant will help protect from mildew.
K - 5 DRAPERIES & WINDOW COVERS After a season or more of usage or exposure, you may wish to remove the draperies. Dry cleaning is recom mended. Many draperies can be easily removed after removing the screw from the end of the curtain track. Others, such as the cabin side window curtains, can be removed after following these steps: a. Locate a point on the curtain track aft of the normal travel of forward cabin side curtains and forward of the normal travel of the aft cabin side curtains. b.
than fold the enclosure curtains. Sharp folds increase the chance of cracking the clear vinyl. High winds encountered during trailering your boat can severely damage the weather cloth. If an extended trip at highway speeds is planned, the top and other weather covers should be in the down position or removed entirely. This will prevent damage, and loss. I MPORTANT: DO NOT use the weather covers during outdoor winter storage.
FIBERGLASS HULL & COMPONENTS strong, rigid, hull permanently formed into a solid as sembly, free of distortions. L-1 GENERAL Carver boats are designed using the sound engineering and mathematical principles of hydrostatics, structure, and strength of materials. The structural integrity and performance characteristics most often desired in each model style can thus be optimized.
diu m-phosphate. Common examples of these types of household cleaning agents are: Tide, Oxydol, Clorox, Janitor-in-a-drum, Fantastic, etc. Always read the label before using an agent. Some household detergents are gentle enough to be safely used, such as Ivory or Dawn dishwashing liquid. There are also several products available which are specifically designed to clean fiber glass exterior finishes. Many companies like Johnson & Johnson, Turtle Wax, etc.
is minimal. Occasionally, blisters, crazing, scratches, or damage to the fiberglass can occur. Crazing is the appearance of hair-line cracks in the gel coat. The occurenceofblisters, especially belowthewater-lineon the hull, is an unfortunate but common difficulty en countered on fiberglass structures. The appearance of fiberglass crazing or blisters is not a sign of deter ioration. These problems, when present, usually occur in the gel coat finish or the outer "skin coat" fiberglass laminations.
WOODWORK CARE & MAINTENANCE M-1 TEAK CARE & MAINTENANCE Solid teakwood is used extensively on Carver boats, especially on the exterior. This wood gives a rich warm appearance with minimal maintenance. Teakwood will never rot or structurally deteriorate. Exposure to the sun and elements will only cause the wood to turn grayish white. Teak can be restored to original appear ance with minimal care using teak care products that are commercially available.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE N-1 PRIOR TO LIFTING FOR WINTER LAYUP Pump out the head (dockside discharge). Flush the head holding tank with soap, water and a deoderizer (e.g., Lysol Liquid). If equipped with an auxiliary holding tank (self-contained head with holding tank), transfer this solution to the holding tank using the transfer pump. Add more water if necessary. Have the cleaning solu tion pumped out. Have the fuel tank(s) either completely full or com pletelyempty.
refrigerator, shower basin, storage locker areas, etc. should also be sprayed with Lyso!. Place small dishes of rodent pOison such as D·Con in a number of areas around the boat. Be sure dishes are placed near the head and the engines, as rodents will destroy water intake and discharge hoses. If the boat will be in outside storage, properly support a storage cover and secure it over the boat. Do Not secure the cover tightly to the boat. This does not allow adequate ventilation and can lead to dry rot.
