Carver 38 Yacht ready for adventures! Two Staterooms with Separate Heads! Full Gally! Rebuilt Engines with Low Hours! Many Upgrades!
Your Next Adventure Starts in Myrtle Beach
Docked in scenic Myrtle Beach, this 1988 Carver 38 Motor Yacht is a rare find--solid, spacious, and impressively equipped. Whether you're chasing weekend escapes, planning longer coastal cruises, or searching for a comfortable liveaboard, this Carver checks all the boxes and then some.
She's powered by twin 454 Mercruiser engines, both fully rebuilt and blueprinted in 2020, now pushing better horsepower than stock. With just over 370 hours on each, they still have plenty of life ahead. The performance is smooth and confident, with a top speed of 24 knots, and she cruises efficiently at 8-10 knots--holding better than 1 nautical mile per gallon per engine around 1750 RPM. The Velvet direct drives, rebuilt in 2022, ensure solid handling at all speeds.
Inside, the layout is open and thoughtfully designed. The salon is cozy yet bright, with LED strip lighting that gives the space a modern, welcoming feel. An L-shaped sleeper sofa offers extra sleeping space and hidden storage, and there's a Samsung 43 4K TV connected to a working cable system for easy onboard entertainment.
You'll find two private staterooms--one forward, one aft--each with their own manual-flush head, full shower with bench seat, and vanity. The V-berth forward and queen berth aft offer comfort and privacy, and the salon sleeper along with a convertible dinette provide additional sleeping accommodations, making room for up to eight overnight guests.
The galley is well-equipped for life aboard, featuring a three-burner Princess induction cooktop with a full oven, a microwave that can run underway with its 12V inverter, double stainless sinks, and a new Norcold apartment-size fridge and freezer, installed in 2022. Storage is abundant, with upper and lower cabinets plus a dedicated pantry for dry goods.
Step outside and you'll find plenty of space to relax or entertain. The aft deck, covered with a hardtop enclosure, is set up for fun with a bar sink, dedicated fridge and freezer, and ample beverage storage. The command bridge above offers excellent visibility and a great spot to enjoy the breeze while cruising.
This Carver is fully outfitted with reliable electronics and navigation gear, including dual Raymarine C90 chartplotters with HD digital radar, dual VHF radios with built-in distress signaling, and Richie compasses at both helm stations. There's also a Magnavox Bluetooth stereo system with four speakers, electric windlass, trim tabs, and a remote-controlled spotlight added in 2023.
Comfort on board is a breeze, thanks to three digital Marinaire AC/heating units, all installed in 2019. Power is never an issue with a 9.0kW generator and a power-retractable 50 AMP shore power system, making dock or off-grid living easy and seamless.
Recent upgrades also include new bottom paint in February 2024, a new radio antenna, fresh bumpers and dock lines added in 2022, and a replaced forward hatch. The swim platform and reboarding ladder are great for water access, while the padded sunbed on the bow is perfect for soaking up the sun. Boarding stairs and wide walkarounds make getting on and off simple and safe.
From top to bottom, this Carver is clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully updated. She's ready to cruise today--and offers a whole lot of boat for someone who's ready to enjoy the water without the usual project boat surprises.
Come see her in Myrtle Beach. You'll know she's the right one the moment you step aboard.
While we will always attempt to provide you with a TRUE representation of every vessel we market, during any purchase from Pop you will be encouraged to schedule an inspection from an independent, accredited surveyor and every purchase WILL ALWAYS BE subject to your satisfaction with the results from your independent survey and your own personal trial run.
We have several more Sea Ray, Bayliner, Chris-Craft, and Silverton vessels for sale. If you're in the Wilmington, Myrtle Beach, Conway, or Socastee areas, please contact us to let us know what you're looking for and we'll get back with you today about any other aft cabin yacht options we have locally that may meet your needs.
Selling your vessel has never been easier. Pop Yachts literally sells thousands of vessels every year all over the country. Sell through a broker and make 20% more $ (compared to traditional dealership trade-in)!
