This 1989 Carver aft cabin motor yacht can literally provide you with a home on the water complete with all the comforts of home. Large Master aft stateroom with walk around island queen size bed, plenty of storage cabinets, counter space includes vanity mirror, full height double door hanging closet.

Plenty of sunshine seating on aft with just two steps up to bridge with captains chair and controls on starboard side with seating on port side and in front of captains chair. Bridge area offers seating for six plus storage cabinets and counter top area.
Radar, VHF radio with duel station controls, (bridge and salon) provides intercom communication. Dash includes engine gages and controls. This boat handles very well with it's four blade props and large rudders. With both engines running it's easy to maneuver and dock. Both the radar arch and the bridge deck fiberglass seating can be removed, (by capable people) if you plan on towing this on roads, interstates to a new location. With the radar arch as it is, the height is about 19'. If you remove the arch you will lower the over all height by about 4' to the dash and steering wheel.
There are three reverse cycle air conditioners which may need re-charging. The forward and main air conditioners were working well, however the aft cabin unit needs re-charging. Keep in mind this is a 1989 boat with normal wear over the years. There is also a generator, which may need a tune up. Hot water heater, and hot and cold fresh water provided by hose hook up to dock water supply. We preferred dock hose running water rather than the water tanks on board. Two holding tanks with deck pump out access as well as macerator pump and valve. 30 amp power cord for dock hook up to 110v power.
Mechanically this boat needs a Starboard engine rebuilding or replacement. The starboard engine has a new mechanical fuel pump, and starter, installed late 2015 and early spring 2016. However the salt water manifolds, raisers, elbows, hoses and carburetor are in need of replacement on the Starboard Engine May be better option to replace with rebuilt Mercury engine and there are numerous listed for sale on Ebay. Boat has about 125 gallons of gas on board in two tanks. The stuffing boxes were re-packed in 2015 and don't show any signs of water drips. The three 12v battery's were new in 2015 and the on board charging system keeps them charged. The swim platform is secure, needs rub rail re-attached in a couple of places and the swim platform fiberglass has about a three inch chip on the starboard side from dock bolt rubbing. It's a simple fiberglass repair and isn't hurting the swim platforms structure. This model Carver has a keel, which is about 12" of it's 3'6" draft. The hull design provides a very stable cruising ride and very economical at about 1400 RPM doing about 10 knots and burning about 10 gallons per engine per hour at that speed.
This 36' pleasure boat offers plenty of living space with many of the comforts of home. It's interior and living areas are in good condition with need of some tender loving care to make it your own comfy cottage. According to the Carver documents is weigh's about 24,000 pounds.
