Here’s a tricky one for the brain trust. Looking at another Carver which owner thinks is a 1984, I think it’s a 1978. What do you guys think? HIN is STN01666M7B-34

I’m stumped, but trying to do my due diligence. Thanks in advance!

Welcome aboard. I hate to tell ya but that is not a Carver, it's a Silverton! And yes I would agree it's a '78

Viper is right, he's always right! If it were a Carver the Hull ID would start with CDR. Good Luck! 8-) er

Welcome to the forum.....I don't think Carver ever made a hull with a sheerline designed like that. Be interesting to see the inside layout, almost looks like a Bertram type design.....not saying it is, but there were a few designers around that designed multiple boat brands.
The above is strictly my opinion always based on years of doing...remember to support local business , it pays back.
