We are selling our much loved and sturdy Freshwater/Lake Michiganonly, Dual Helm 1978 Carver Voyager 3326. We have downsized our new boat a bit to match our needs. The things we loved about the carver are the flat surfaces from the aft (Fishing platform & Downriggers at rear) to the additional helm station. While working the Downriggers and fishing gear there is no traversing stairs or entryways. The large patio style sliding door makes this a joy for any sportsman. We are including the Downriggers with the sale.Copy and paste in your Browser please.Launch day Video is hosted on my Microsoft Onedrive online @: https://1drv.ms/v/s!Am_Xgh9Mb5x-gbI4aAvHdpwK52FIEQ
We enjoyed the oversized refrigerator, which means you don't have to bring ice every time you go to the boat. It has room for all your groceries. In the kitchen there is also an electric stove and with three burners, a broiler and an oven.
The bench seating at the expandable Kitchen table provides an additional sleeping (We have these cushionstoo) area and tons of counter space. we used it for family gaming and comfortable dining.
The Boat has Twin OMC GM 350 cuEngines that run clean and idle like a dream. Recent upgrade are HEI Ignition, whichadds reliability; lowered consumption, and HP. The advantages to chevy350 engines are obvious; mechanicsare experienced with them, Parts are easily found and reasonablypriced. Belts, and filters are found at Walmart!Thru hull exhaust, provides a nice rumble without silencing any conversation.Twin "V" Velvet drive (Serviced recently by skipper buds).The Chaise style seating at the upper helm adds more comfort. Docking is a breeze with the unobstructed views provided by the operationalupper helm (I use the inside lower helm, so I can help with the lines). The powerful motors in combination with the low idle make docking, even in tight gas dock/pump-outs easy.I installed a new aluminum Hot Waterheater last season. The stand-up shower is surprisinglyuseful, and a bonus for a quick cleanup before dinner.I installed the surged carpet and all new handmadenautically themed Curtains recently.Also included, a new Three layer Foam Mattress in the forwards berth which has a wooden door for privacy, and a separatecontrol forthe workingAC/Heat.All Beautifullydetailed Maple wood trim and panelling inside. Doors are Polished maple.
The upper helmhas a Bimini top and windshield/privacy cover. We had them made new since we have owned the boat (Starting in 2012). The beauty in this setup is no canvas to replace from wear throughout the seasons. A hard-top reallycuts down on the consumables (Canvas costs)Inside the spacious main area, we had mounted a TV across from the sturdy steel framed pull out couch. When the Metal blinds are closed and the curtains drawn, you have complete privacy. There is ample lighting with the many 12v overhead lighting lamps.AnotherUpgrade is the XANTREX Battery charger;http://www.xantrex.com/power-products/battery-chargers/truecharge-2-2.aspxIt has a moderncharger installed; and can be programmed for any type of battery. This charger has a bonus remote helm located digital battery indicator called a "Xantrex Truecharge2 Remote Panel"Currently there are three nice sized - all matching - Duralast 12V Batteries.The Bottom Coat was professionallydone last year.
She is Very spacious and stable. The Beam is 12' The Fiberglass for this freshwater / Lake Michigan only boat, is thicker than modern boats. The methods have changed and these are hand laidfiberglass hulls.
This is a roomy boat for a family, or couple who are interested in boating, without taking on a loan. She Shines up very nicely and the teak and bright-workadd to the charm.She is a good runner and will make a fine home for it's next family.
