[QUOTE=GFC;380022]I agree that it's butt ugly.

"Now I have a question that I've thought about. A friend wants to buy a bigger boat and is looking at a Carver Mariner. Here's a photo of one.


I'm sorry but I think this is one of the ugliest boats ever to hit the water. If any of you own one, I'm sorry, and I'm sorry if you're offended."


GFC,
It's not my style either. I wouln't have one. I don't like to see these bloated bullet boats anywhere .. in the marina or on the water.

But as much as I don't like them this one actually is a good looking boat .. as a piece of sculpture if you will. Some trawlers are as bad though mostly through clutter. This Carver is not burdened w clutter and has nice flowing lines. Not what we like to see but from a design point of view it's a good looking boat. Sorry I couldn't get on your wagon.
