all of these things are major selling points. our carver has the ladder which is fine, but my wife is 10 years older than me and the stairs are a must if we go back to a bridge boat. I agree on the...

you've blown my mind a bit. I was shopping newer than 2000 and Silverton was not on my radar, but I just pulled up a '95 362 and it's nearly perfect in every way. especially with the steps to the...

I know I've seen it in the 3700s, they have what seem to be the absolute perfect layout for us (for a non bridged vessel). I was just hoping to find it in a model a couple feet shorter for the slip....

Beds and Heads, Under 38FT

We're looking again.
Had a 2400SCR, now a Carver 31'.

At what model did Maxum start running the full walk around bed, and a full shower vs the sit and shower head? We spend a lot of time on...

hopefully no damage. we are just south of you in the Tacoma area and I was shocked by how much snow we had on the boat, as well as the water freezing up as well.

Seadek, Raptor, knock-offs

Last year we had Raptor do the bridge in our new boat and I'm really happy with it. https://raptordeck.com/

This year we were thinking of doing the swim step, and then the whole cockpit/aft deck...

3000 vs 3200

What are some of the trim option differences between these two boats?

Did both generally come with a generator?

Only difference I think I have seen in some so far is an option closet forward...

I agree with that, sounds like we have similar ideas of what the right price is for these boats based upon condition. Although I think if I had to repower twins the only way I'd stay under $50k out...

That really sounds worth it to me. Turn on the music, bring a few beers and plan on hanging out on the boat for a few hours at a time until my hands and arms are aching. I had a quote for a full...

The next issue I have is the prices seem to be painfully regionally and up here in Seattle they are typically much higher. I think I could just about pull the trigger today on a early 2000s 3000 for...

Average Prices 3000/3200/3300

As I continue to browse Maxums I'm finding some level of consistency in the trim of 1997+ models showing updated cabinetry, counter tops, and helm.

Where I'm struggling a bit is figuring out...

As it turns out, this boat sold about 5 minutes before we arrived to see it but I was still grateful to the owners to allow us a tour so I could get a feel for the size and layout of the 3000. It's...

hmm good point. the 3000 I'm looking at is a single engine, might be underpowered now that I think of it. although bow thrusters would be fun. This is the boat that caught my attention this morning,...

The 2700 is actually perfect for us. my slip neighbor has one and the extra beam and cabin height is more than plenty and why I would have bought this other 2700. But since it costs the same as the...
