Hey All!

Finally in a position in my career to chase some dreams. The wife and I are moving to Florida this year and will be buying a boat for the first time. We are super excited and are doing a bunch of research on what to buy. I think i have narrowed down to buying a Carver boat. I'm super excited to join the Carver community and hope I can gather all the information I need to make a solid educated decision!

Welcome aboard. Pick our brains about some potential models as the crew here might have some useful insight. What size boat are you considering?

Hope it all works out for you, and keep us posted.

I plan on getting around a 36' or longer. I really like the Carver Mariner and the 360 Sport Sedan.

No, but this will be my first salt water vessel. I've owned smaller power boats and sailboats that would take out on local lakes and reservoirs in Idaho.
