Vessel Info: 2001 396, less than 100 hours on twin Cummins-previous owner used it as a virtual condo at the dock. Maintained flawlessly. Just bought yesterday and surveys next week. Selling sea Ray 260, Sundancer, which I loved but becomes way too small fast.

Hi everybody-My name is Larry and I just had my potential new baby hauled and surveyed today and sea trial also. Mechanical survey on Friday. She is 2001 396 Aft Cabin. Twin diesel with only 100 hours on them! Selling my Sea Ray 2003 Sundancer 260. Love the lay-out of the cabin and fly bridge too. This boat is like brand new-really a beauty!

Welcome Aboard. I really love the room that these aft cabin models have. Best of luck with the mechanical survey. Hope it works out well for you. Have a great season.

Carver designers were fantastic about getting max volume into their boats. The 396 is a fantastic boat, and will run forever with the diesels!
