POWERBOAT GUIDE DESCRIPTION: The Carver 444 Cockpit Motor Yacht is basically a Carver 396 Motor Yacht (2000–07) with a cockpit and extra fuel. This was a huge sales success for Carver. No other cockpit yacht her size can match the 444 for interior space and comfort, and none has a larger cockpit. Stepping below, the enormous full-beam interior of the Carver 444—made possible by raising the side decks to eye level—comes as a surprise. With its panoramic views and nearly seven feet of headroom, the salon dimensions are those of a much larger boat. A mid-level galley is forward to port, and both staterooms have queen berths. To save space, the forward head is split with the shower stall to port and toilet compartment to starboard. A sliding glass door in the (smallish) master stateroom
opens directly into the cockpit. Wing doors and a hardtop protect the aft deck, also on the small side. In 2004, an optional “Extended
Salon” floorplan with a full-size dinette, enlarged galley and redesigned forward stateroom became available. Topside, the helm
is forward on the spacious flybridge with lounge seating and wet bar aft. Volvo 370hp diesels cruise at 18 knots (low 20s top
The Carver 444 is known for her expansive salon, comfortable aft master stateroom, generous flybridge seating, and practical cockpit access for docking and water activities. Whether cruising the Great Lakes, coastal waters, or enjoying weekends aboard at the marina, this yacht offers an excellent balance of luxury, functionality, and performance.
Boat is currently completing the loop and will cross its wake in Northern Michigan and can be shown upon appointment.
