The Carver Yachts 36 Super Sport 2010 vs Carver Yachts 56 Voyager SE 2007 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.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Carver Yachts 56 Voyager SE 2007 measures 59,0 feet overall (2007), giving it roughly 20,8 additional feet of deck space compared to the Carver Yachts 36 Super Sport 2010 at 38,3 feet (2010).

That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.
The Carver Yachts 56 Voyager SE 2007 tops out at 715 hp. Engine specs for the Carver Yachts 36 Super Sport 2010 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Carver Yachts 36 Super Sport 2010 carries 311 gallons versus 8 gallons in the Carver Yachts 56 Voyager SE 2007. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
Bottom line: The Carver Yachts 56 Voyager SE 2007 at 59,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Carver Yachts 36 Super Sport 2010 at 38,3 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.
