2000 Carver 396 Motor Yacht

The Carver 396 Motor Yacht is striking and spacious. By raising the gunnels, Carver has opened up the cabin, stretching it the full width of the 13-foot 11-inch beam. Because the salon, galley, and dinette are all part of one "great room" concept, guests are given the freedom to roam. Plus, the two-tiered window system provides perfect line of sight outdoors, whether seated on the plush salon furniture, or while preparing meals in the fully equipped, casually sunken galley. Below deck, the aft master stateroom has incredible amounts of storage, a queen-size, inner-spring island berth, and a private head complete with separate head and shower compartments. The forward guest stateroom has a queen-size island berth with an inner-spring mattress, and a split head arrangement with separate shower and water closet. When it's time to spread out, passengers will appreciate the approximately 73-square-foot aft deck protected by standard wing doors, a hardtop, and a weather cloth that's molded right into the deck. And, an integral stairway leads to the yacht's command bridge with seating for six, and a centerline helm for maximum visibility. A wetbar with available refrigerator or icemaker helps make this bridge and aft deck the perfect entertaining platform.

This Vessel has major Upgrades, one in particular that NO OTHER Carver 396 has. It has been equipped with a Presto Marine Dinghy Hydraulic Lift (The dinghy in this listing is Not for sale) However it does demonstrate the full capability for a Center Console Dinghy.

Manufacturer Description

The smallest of their aft cabin fleet, the Carver 326 Motor Yacht packs many of the features of her larger siblings - including room for an optional electronics arch. Built of aluminum, the arch is an ideal location for radar equipment and it supports the optional aft deck hardtop with soft enclosures. Topside, the 326's centerline helm and bridge arrangement surrounds the captain with friends and family, while providing maximum visibility for maneuvering. The helm is a wrap-around console with full instrumentation. Below deck, the 326's aft stateroom features two inner-spring berths, abundant storage space and a mirrored vanity with sink and storage. And, for the chef, the galley of the Carver 326 Aft Cabin includes a two-burner electric stove, dual voltage refrigerator and freezer, and room for options like a microwave and a coffee maker. Combine these features with sleeping room for six and the 326 becomes an excellent choice for a sunny cruise or a weekend adventure.
