Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Carver Yachts 46 Voyager 2009 vs Carver Yachts 564 Cockpit Motor Yacht 2002 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Carver Yachts 46 Voyager 2009 vs Carver Yachts 564 Cockpit Motor Yacht 2002 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.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 575 hp, the Carver Yachts 46 Voyager 2009 has a 40-hp advantage over the Carver Yachts 564 Cockpit Motor Yacht 2002's 535-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Carver Yachts 564 Cockpit Motor Yacht 2002 carries 646 gallons versus 554 gallons in the Carver Yachts 46 Voyager 2009. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
Bottom line: The Carver Yachts 564 Cockpit Motor Yacht 2002 at 56,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Carver Yachts 46 Voyager 2009 at 47,0 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.
