Freshwater kept since new, exceptionally well cared for, and loaded with valuable upgrades, this 2001 Carver 356 Motor Yacht delivers the comfort, space, comfort, and livability of a much larger yacht in a highly manageable and versatile package.
With her wide 13’ 3” beam, expansive aft deck, spacious flybridge, and classic two-stateroom, two-head layout, the Carver 356 is one of the most popular motor yachts in her class for cruising, entertaining, and extended liveaboard comfort. Whether you’re spending weekends aboard, cruising the Columbia River, exploring Puget Sound, or enjoying waterfront living at the dock, C-Travel offers outstanding versatility and value.
Powered by twin MerCruiser MX 6.2 MPI 377 CID V8 gasoline inboards producing 320 HP each, she features approximately 888 port hours and 908 starboard hours. Paired with Velvet Drive transmissions and Sea Star hydraulic steering, she offers dependable performance and confident handling from both upper and lower helm stations.
She has been freshwater kept since new and has had only two owners. Her upgraded cherry wood interior creates a warm and inviting salon, while large windows throughout provide excellent natural light and visibility. The full-beam aft master stateroom offers exceptional privacy with an island berth, ensuite head, and separate stall shower. Forward, the VIP guest stateroom provides comfortable accommodations, while the convertible dinette and salon seating allow sleeping for up to eight adults.
Topside, the large enclosed aft deck is ideal for entertaining in any season, while the spacious flybridge offers seating for six, full instrumentation, and excellent visibility. The integrated swim platform, walk-through transom door, and molded staircase make boarding easy and ideal for watersports, crabbing, or simply enjoying life on the water.
