Description

Carver Yachts holds a legendary reputation in the boating industry for engineering exceptionally spacious, practical, and highly comfortable cruising vessels. For decades, Carver has mastered the art of maximizing interior volume, making their motor yachts feel much larger than their official length suggests. Built with traditional American quality and solid structural fiberglass, a Carver yacht represents the ultimate balance of reliable sea-kindliness and the modern conveniences of an on-the-water home. The 1991 Carver 36 Aft Cabin (3608) is a premier example of a beamy tri-cabin cruiser configured with a modified-vee hull, engineered to deliver a soft and comfortable ride. This popular layout features a remarkably open and spacious salon, a step-down galley, a dedicated kitchenette, and two private staterooms positioned at opposite ends of the vessel for maximum privacy. Driven by upgraded, highly desirable twin Cummins diesel engines rather than standard gasoline blocks, this configuration significantly extends cruising range to more than 900 km on a single fueling. Notably, the design emphasizes an optimized dual-helm configuration with a fully enclosed flybridge, convenient stairs access, and an expansive layout that feels incredibly large on the water. EFFICIENT DIESEL POWER - 900+ KM RANGE - TWIN CUMMINS ENGINES (2316 HOURS) - SOLAR EQUIPPED - DINGHY DAVIT LIFT SYSTEM - TWO NEW SOUND SYSTEMS - FLYBRIDGE W/ FULL ENCLOSURE - TWO PRIVATE STATEROOMS - TWO FULL HEADS - DUAL HELMS - 8KW KOHLER/YANMAR GENERATOR - 3 HEAT & AC PUMPS +++ This specific 1991 Carver 3608 Aft Cabin is a proven adventure vessel ready for its next owner, having successfully navigated the Ottawa/Montreal/Lake Champlain mini-loop, Georgian Bay, and the waters of Tadoussac. Perfect for extended live-aboard trips, the current owners have comfortably spent 6 to 8 weeks on board at a time. It is heavily upgraded for self-sufficient anchoring, featuring 7 solar panels with an MPPT charger, a robust battery system, and a custom-designed multi-height dinghy davit system capable of handling open crossings like Lake Ontario. Beautifully maintained with recent upgrades including new curtains (2024), an anchor washdown pump (2024), and a brand-new master stateroom AC heat pump (2025), this turn-key, fuel-efficient cruiser is ready to explore.
