Hi there Carvers!

Friends and I were in Portsmouth/Norfolk, VA, for the 4th of July weekend; we all live in Washington, DC. We stayed on a friend's yacht (which I've forgotten the model). While staying with them, we noticed a number of yachts for sale and the 4 of us have been bitten by the boat bug!

We've narrowed down our search for Carver 32-36' Aft Cabin yachts, a used one from the mid/late 1980's to 2000.

One of us is active duty Coast Guard, another is a licensed Realtor in MD, DC, and VA, and 2 of us work for the Federal Government.

Any general suggestions on buying a used Carver and specific model? We want a yacht big enough to spend weekends on, occasional week-long trips up and down the Eastern coastline, and socialize with friends. At a minimum, 2 berths.

Any advice would be appreciated!

Thx
Rob
