2000 Carver 356 Aft Cabin Motor Yacht

Step aboard and you’ll notice how the raised aft deck and flybridge layout really open up your entertaining space. Wide side decks with secure railings make line handling and anchoring less of a scramble, and the molded steps between levels beat ladders when you’re carrying trays or gear. Large salon windows pull the water in, so even on a gray day it feels bright and open. The two-stateroom, two-head layout gives real privacy for guests or family, and the aft cabin’s separate access to the deck is a perk you don’t miss until you’ve had it. Underway, the hull’s broad shoulders deliver a stable ride that keeps drinks on the table and crew relaxed.

This 356 shines in local waters where depth can change quickly and weekends bring plenty of traffic. Its moderate draft and responsive inboards make it comfortable weaving through crowded fairways and finding that perfect anchorage. The generous flybridge offers a commanding view for spotting crab pots, shoals, and weekend warriors, while the enclosed aft deck becomes your shaded cockpit lounge when the sun is high. Twin gasoline engines provide the flexibility to idle along at trawler speeds or power up for a quick run to a quieter creek. Add in the roomy interior and you’ve got a capable floating condo that’s equally happy at the dock or exploring nearby rivers and bays.
