Description

Spacious. Upgraded. Price reduced. This boat represents excellent value at the current asking price.
If you're looking for a comfortable, versatile cruising yacht with serious liveaboard potential, this Carver 396 deserves your attention. With twin low-hour Cummins 370hp diesels, a 10kW Kohler generator, and a long list of recent upgrades, this one is ready to go, and priced well below comparable boats.

The widebody design offers unmatched interior volume for a boat this size. The full-beam salon feels like a waterfront condo, with tall headroom, wraparound windows, and two opposing settees (one convertible, the other with dual recliners). A spacious, sunken galley features a full-size fridge/freezer, 3-burner stove, and plenty of storage, perfect for extended cruising or dockside entertaining.

Below deck, the layout includes two private staterooms with queen island berths and two fully equipped heads, each with separate shower compartments. The aft master suite rivals those found on much larger yachts, while the forward guest stateroom offers excellent privacy.

Perfect for Entertaining on the Water:
  • Expansive full-beam salon with opposing settees and wraparound windows
  • Seamless flow from salon to galley, ideal for casual hosting
  • 3-zone A/C with reverse-cycle heat keeps guests comfortable year-round
  • Spacious aft deck with hardtop, wing doors, and molded stairs to flybridge
  • Flybridge seats six with centerline helm, wet bar, and new tables (2023)
  • Synthetic cockpit sole and new cockpit furniture with built-in storage
  • Icemaker, cockpit sink
  • Flat-screen TVs in cockpit, salon, and master; stereo zones throughout
  • Stainless Ultra anchor with 110 ft. chain and electric windlass
  • Topside vinyl wrap and winter cover help keep her party-ready

Accommodations & Features
Inside, you'll find two generous staterooms, each with a queen island berth and its own private head with separate shower. The salon's dual settees offer even more sleeping flexibility, while the fully equipped galley includes a full-size fridge, 3-burner stove, microwave, and ample storage.

Additional features include:
  • Central vacuum system
  • Dual Vacuflush heads (aft pump replaced 2023)
  • LED lighting throughout, including underwater lights
  • 5 batteries, dual 50A shore power, upgraded battery charger
  • Aftercooler service, oil and fuel filters, impellers, freshwater pump, and more all recently addressed

Versatile Cruising Potential
Whether you're entertaining on the dock, weekending with family, or planning bigger adventures, this Carver is up for it. With a published bridge clearance just under 19 feet (depending on configuration), she's even a contender for Great Loop cruising with minimal prep.

Currently dockside and easy to show by appointment.
