2000 Carver Voyager 450 Pilothouse M/Y

This is likely the cleanest, most well equipped and maintained 450 Voyager on the market today. Look at the upgrades and maintenance sections below and you’ll agree.

This 450 has always been in fresh water on the Great Lakes, stored in indoor heated storage in the winters and has had an open checkbook for maintenance. Recent electronics upgrade, 1,000-hour factory service on the low hour reliable, efficient Cummins Diesels, and the hull has received annual buff and wax. The boat shows like new!

If you are looking for a boat for the Great Loop or extended cruising, this is it. It has massive interior space due to the almost 15’ beam. Entering the 450 from the cockpit through the beautiful glass sliding doors, the upscale cherrywood interior is innovative as it is functional. The lower helm and dinette are on the raised pilothouse area with the galley to port and center wet bar. The owner’s stateroom midships has a walk around queen and ensuite head with shower. The guest suite forward has a walk around double bed and private access to the day head with shower. A washer dryer sits in a companion way.

Carver equipped this 450 with the desirable Cummins 450 h.p. diesels with prop pockets in the hull to keep the engines closer to level. A model of reliability and efficiency, this is the setup to have while cruising or doing the Loop. A Yanmar equipped 13.5kw Koehler generator makes life on the hook a dream.

Overall, the 2000 Carver 450 Pilothouse combines timeless design with modern amenities, offering a luxurious and comfortable retreat on the water. Don’t miss this chance to see this great example of the 450 Voyager. Call/text/email to set up an appointment soon!
