| Sounds like a good deal price wise, but that is not an 84 carver. That is an earlier model, late 70's is my guess. |

Hi gsxrtxr
Firstly welcome to the Carver forum.
The boat you are looking at is not an 84. The shape photoed is at the latest an 82 as this shape finished in 82.
Have a look at the lower left corner of the transom and you will find a serial number.
The last two digits are the year of manufacture. Also have this serial number checked out to see if it was ever stolen, damaged or is under any financial restraint.
If the owner does not know the year then I would be very cautious.
Hope this helps
Paul

There are quite a few people that will custom build a trailer for this boat. But boat/trailer will come in around 12,000 to 13,000 LBS.
So you will need at least a HD 3/4 ton or 1 ton truck... and wide load permits.
Good luck
Like others have said, get it checked out, seems really low on the price.
