Carver 500 Motor Yacht For Sale Gold Coast
It is an impressive vessel, filled with light and generous living spaces, private and comfortable sleeping arrangements, and an aesthetically pleasing interior, which all together create an ambiance that is very soothing and homely. This makes this vessel a particularly attractive and cost-effective option for permanent live aboard. And with the current berth in Hope Island Marina available for the buyer it's an option that is available now. Many boaters would rate Hope Island Marina as the best live aboard marina in the area and at $1035 a month (all inclusive) represents excellent value for money.
Life aboard would include two double cabins, each with lift up island berths (new gas struts) and lots of storage. The aft full beam master cabin has access to the rear covered cockpit as well as separate shower, vanity and head. A huge saloon incorporates a lounge (electric lift 55 inch smart TV in cabinet), a PC work station, full boat WiFi, a dining area and a well equipped galley. Forward of this is the second double cabin with ensuite (combines as the day head), lots of storage and the washing machine and dryer (nicely cabineted). The upper decks are accessed from both the rear cockpit and the saloon. Up from the salon is a glass enclosed cockpit (mezzanine level) with access to the lower aft cockpit and the side and front decks. This mezzanine area has a new lounge with under seat (4 of) storage, a new stereo system, a bread-maker and a wet bar above the bar fridge. Another couple of steps up to the command bridge which is also fully enclosed with glass and has lots of openings for fresh air. The command bridge (flybridge) is comprehensively equipped and has seating for 8 people. The master has good vision all round from the helm seat. This boat has lots of room and is "zoned" so that there is always a quiet place when required.
This vessel is powered by twin Cummins 430 HP "Diamond Series" diesels, ZF gearboxes and other quality mechanicals including the Glendenning Engine Synchroniser and it is all easily accessed in a very tidy engine room. Note: this boat is dry in the bilges all the time!! So, no mess and smells.
Recently fitted new house batteries, an upgraded smart charger, and a larger inverter have just made this boat even more suited to live aboard by providing a much more robust and functional 240-volt power system. With the new setup, it is easy to run multiple 240 AC appliances at the same time, with much of the power coming from the shore power or generator directly and not from the house batteries.
The owner has had the boat out of the water and has completed extensive work, including having the hull sandblasted back to the original gel coat, minor repairs to the hull, and applying new antifoul, prop speed, and anodes. There are also two new Hella underwater lights and a full service on the bow thruster has been completed. Additionally, a new survey for insurance will be completed on Monday before the boat is put back into the water.
Now is your chance to obtain a boat in excellent shape that will not need to be lifted again for 2 years.
Features include:
> New Dual Raymarine 9" Axiom plotter/Sounder MFD's
> New Raymarine auto-pilot
> New 400 AH 24V house batteries
> New 50 Amp (24V) charger
> New 5000 Watt inverter
> New Victron battery monitor
> New Maxwell anchor winch
> New Covered aft lower cockpit (great in the heat and in the rain)
> Raymarine C70 radar
> Reverse cycle A/C to most areas
> Washing machine (New) and dryer
> Large Hooded S/S BBQ and bait board on new duck board rails
> Avon RIB tender and 9.9 hp outboard with electric davit
> Kohler diesel gen-set
> Wesmar bow thruster
SWAP POSSIBLE - The seller would consider a cash/boat swap for the Carver. The seller is interested in a 35-40 foot Express Cruiser (Searay 355, Mustang 3800, Bavaria, Bayliner, or similar) valued between $100K and $200K.
