Introducing Here, There, and Everywhere, a 2000 Carver Aft Cabin Motor Yacht. This vessel has been impeccably maintained and cared for as the pictures will show. If you are in the market for a motor yacht with Cummins diesels, your search is over!

The 2000 Carver 456 Aft Cabin Motor Yacht is a luxurious and spacious vessel that blends comfort, performance, and versatile cruising capabilities. Designed with long-range adventures and liveaboard lifestyles in mind, this yacht stands out with its intelligent use of space, distinctive lines, and thoughtful amenities.

At 45 feet 9 inches in length and with a generous 15-foot beam, the Carver 456 offers expansive interior and exterior areas typically found in much larger yachts. Her hardtop flybridge is a signature feature—fully enclosed with canvas and isinglass, offering panoramic visibility and protection from the elements. Comfortable lounge seating, a central helm with well-laid-out instrumentation, and an adjacent wet bar create an inviting atmosphere for both entertaining and navigation.

Below, the interior is nothing short of impressive. Rich wood cabinetry, plush carpeting, and a well-lit, open floor plan give a warm and homelike feel. The salon features opposing settees, large windows for natural light, and ample headroom, making it an ideal spot for gatherings or relaxation. The U-shaped galley, located forward of the salon, comes fully equipped with a full-size refrigerator, microwave, three-burner cooktop, and abundant storage, allowing for extended stays onboard.

The yacht boasts three private staterooms, a master suite aft, a VIP suite forward and a bunk room port side forward. The two private suites each have private heads. The aft master suite is particularly notable—it features a queen-sized island berth, large hanging lockers, and a split head with separate shower and toilet compartments. The forward VIP stateroom offers similar comfort and privacy, appealing to both owners and guests alike with the added feature of opening the bunk room creating a massive en suite.

One of the standout design elements is the aft deck, which serves as a second salon with hardtop coverage, wing doors for weather protection, and easy access to both the main cabin and swim platform. Integrated staircases make transitions between decks safe and convenient, and the molded steps to the flybridge offer a secure path upward.

Performance-wise, the 456 typically comes powered by twin Cummins diesel engines, which deliver reliable cruising speeds and solid fuel economy for her size. She’s built on Carver’s proven planing hull, providing stable handling in a variety of sea conditions.

What truly sets the 2000 Carver 456 apart is its ability to serve as both a comfortable cruiser and a capable liveaboard. Whether docked in a marina or exploring remote anchorages, it offers the amenities and layout that let owners live aboard with ease and style. It's a vessel that combines the best aspects of home and sea, with a layout that maximizes space, privacy, and enjoyment for everyone aboard.

In short, the Carver 456 is not just a boat—it’s a floating home with horizons as wide as your wanderlust.
