2002 Carver 444 Cockpit Motor Yacht

Step aboard and you’ll notice how the full-beam salon feels more like a waterfront condo than a typical 44-footer. Huge windows pour light over the open lounge and galley, and the raised dinette lets guests enjoy the view underway. The aft cockpit is a standout—perfect for line handling, quick dips off the transom, or setting out a couple of chairs for sunset drinks. Wide side decks and solid rails give reassuring footing moving forward. Up top, the bridge and aft deck flow together into one big social zone, with excellent sightlines for docking and cruising in tight waterways. It’s an easy boat to live on, not just ride on.

This 444 layout shines in areas with busy harbors, no-wake zones, and variable conditions. The cockpit makes boarding from floating docks simple, while the aft cabin with direct cockpit access makes it easy to move between inside and outside without climbing ladders. Generous tankage, efficient diesels, and a comfortable cruise speed suit longer weekend hops between marinas or anchorages. The enclosed aft deck and bridge keep you protected when the breeze turns cool off the water, yet open up nicely on warm afternoons. With two real staterooms and a bright salon, it’s ideal for extended seasonal use in a mixed climate.
