Listing Highlight: 35′ Carver 356 Motor Yacht 1999 | PANACHE

Lovingly Maintained Cruiser with Recent Upgrades and Professional Tune-Up

The 1999 Carver 356 Motor Yacht PANACHE represents an exceptional opportunity for boaters ready to embark on an extended cruise or complete the Great Loop. This 35-foot motoryacht has been lovingly cared for and recently upgraded with a professional tune-up completed in December 2024, meaning you can depart immediately rather than spending months preparing her for adventure.

PANACHE embodies the practical cruising philosophy that defines the Carver 356 model. With a beam of 13.3 feet and a draft of just 3.3 feet, she offers excellent stability and shallow-water capability, making her ideal for exploring the Chesapeake Bay and beyond. The twin Mercruiser 7.4 454 engines provide reliable power, and with only 1,687 total hours on the clock, these powerplants have plenty of life ahead. The engines received a complete professional tune-up in December 2024, ensuring peak performance from the moment you cast off. The upgrades completed on PANACHE demonstrate a commitment to modern cruising comfort and reliability. Fresh bottom paint applied in March 2026 protects the hull, while new helm and aft deck enclosures featuring Regalite 40-gauge windows and canvas by Diversified Marine, installed in 2023, provide weather protection and extend the cruising season. The Raymarine electronics suite, installed in 2020, includes an autopilot, radar, and chartplotter with both 12-inch and 16-inch touch-screens, giving you confidence in any conditions.

Below decks, PANACHE has been thoughtfully updated for extended cruising. New VHF radios and handsets were added at both the helm and salon in 2020, ensuring reliable communication throughout your journey. The Fusion audio system, installed in 2020 with zone control, allows you to enjoy music throughout the vessel. The galley features a new 12V/110V refrigerator installed in 2023, while the heads have been upgraded with electric units and a PuraSan system in the aft head, eliminating the need for pump-outs and reducing maintenance concerns during extended cruises. The mechanical systems reflect a philosophy of reliability and ease of maintenance. New engine and generator impellers were replaced in 2024, bronze propellers and cutlass bearings were upgraded in 2019, and an anchor rode counter was added for simplified anchoring operations. The extended 3-foot swim platform by Phipps Boat Works features strong structural supports and an upgraded swim ladder with railing, while a Hurley Marine H30+ dinghy davit mounted on the swim platform makes tender operations effortless.

Comfort and livability have been enhanced throughout. Carpet has been replaced with waterproof vinyl laminate flooring, practical for cruising life. A new tinted aft cabin window provides enhanced visibility and light control, while salon windows have been retinted with high-efficiency ceramic film to reduce heat and glare. New aft-deck furniture creates an inviting outdoor entertaining space, perfect for enjoying sunsets at anchor. Located in Tracy’s Landing, Maryland, PANACHE sits in the heart of Chesapeake Bay cruising territory. Her combination of recent upgrades, professional maintenance, and proven Carver 356 design makes her an ideal platform for the cruising adventure you have been planning. With only 1,687 engine hours and a comprehensive list of recent improvements, she is ready to go now rather than requiring months of preparation.
