2008 Silverton Convertible

Step aboard and you immediately notice how much natural light pours through the oversized salon windows, giving this 36-footer the feel of a much larger yacht. The open layout between salon and galley keeps everyone in the conversation, whether you’re prepping dinner or lounging after a long run offshore. Wide side decks and secure railings make line handling and anchoring less of a balancing act, even when the chop picks up. Up on the flybridge, the visibility is outstanding—ideal for watching the spread or threading a tight fairway. Thoughtful storage throughout means your rods, dive gear, and provisions all have a proper home, keeping the boat clean and guest-ready on short notice.

This Silverton Convertible is particularly well-suited to local waters where you’ll encounter a mix of narrow channels, open bays, and occasional ocean swells. The hull design offers a reassuring ride when the afternoon breeze kicks up, yet the 36-foot length is compact enough for tighter marinas and shallower anchorages. Enclosed bridge seating keeps the helmsman comfortable during shoulder-season runs, while the generous cockpit is ready for trolling, crabbing, or setting up chairs for a sunset raft-up. With real liveaboard-friendly accommodations, you can wait out weather at the dock in comfort, then take advantage of fair-weather windows to explore further without feeling rushed.
