Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Carver Yachts 36 Super Sport 2009 vs Carver Yachts Trojan 440 Express 2000 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Carver Yachts 36 Super Sport 2009 vs Carver Yachts Trojan 440 Express 2000 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 435 hp for the Carver Yachts 36 Super Sport 2009 and 450 hp for the Carver Yachts Trojan 440 Express 2000. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup.
Bottom line: The Carver Yachts Trojan 440 Express 2000 at 44,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Carver Yachts 36 Super Sport 2009 at 38,0 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking — a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.
