Hello everyone I recently purchased a beautiful 2000 456 MY. Hull # 3. I had been looking for this boat for 5 years, I'm glad I took the time to buy the right boat for me. I'm a year round live aboard , and this model Carver is perfect for my lifestyle. For those that are not familiar with this model, basically it has three staterooms, two heads, galley up in salon. a large aft deck and large helm with plenty of seating. The Bridge deck and Aft deck are fully glass enclosed, I wanted to get away from any canvas and I like the overall appearance. The Boat has 5 zone AC/Heat ,and is equipped with most available options in that year. I have owned it for 5 months and am still overwhelmed by this yacht. I am learning more and more about the boat each day and welcome any questions and advice you might have. For those searching for a larger yacht ,take your time and you will find the right boat for you! Good luck. Victor
