Hi, I am Bob Waz and under contract for a 1995 Carver 380 Santego with 350HP Crusaders. The decision was finding a reasonably priced boat that is dog friendly to our 3 larger dogs. In getting them on board with the steps on platform and up to the bridge is perfect, Also the cabin being roomy with basically no steps is great. We do our boating on northern Lake Champlain, NY. It is law but not currently enforced to have a grey water tank. This is something I will do and if any others have done this would appreciate feed back. We are in our 60s now and found the name KNOT AGAIN! to be quite fitting. We have owned many boats in our past but the 2 larger ones were a 34 Hatteras Sport Cruiser and a 36 Island Gypsy quad cabin.
