Additional Information:

Based on Power Boat Guide the Carver 355 Motor Yacht is arguably the best-selling boat in her class. The Carver 355 Motor Yacht (as called in 1995–1998) is an updated version of the Carver 33/350 Motor Yacht which was built from 1991-1994. Hull construction is solid fiberglass with moderate beam and an integral swim platform. Below, the galley-down interior of the Carver 355 is tastefully finished with wood accents, Corian counters, and Ultraleather seating. Wraparound windows provide plenty of natural lighting in the salon which came with a convertible sofa to port, barrel chair and entertainment center opposite, and mid-level dinette forward. The galley features a refrigerator with a freezer, coffee maker, and microwave. The aft stateroom has a tapered queen berth, built-in TV, and private head with separate stall shower. An offset double berth is in the forward stateroom. The forward head is a wet head that is accessible by the kitchen. Molded steps (with a handrail) descend from the aft deck to the extended swim platform. A bow pulpit, aft deck wet bar, and hardtop were standard.

Current owner has gone through boat over a three week period and checked, repaired, replaced any and all issues that he could find with any operations or functions of boat.

In June the boat went to mackinaw island 3 times, Hessel x2, Cedarville x2 and Detour without any incident or issue.

Boat is ready for the water and will continue to be used by owner in July and August to visit the U P and wherever else they can find to go.
