    I have a 89 184 and love it. Only thing I dont like is it is a dual console, I wanted a single but for the price I could not pass it up.

    My first champ was a 1988 184 with a 175 merc. Man I wish I still had that boat. Was in great shape and never had a problem with it. Fished some rough water in it several times and it handled it like a lot bigger boat that it was. you will not be disappointed.

    I have a '90 184f/s w/175 black max. Awesome boat! I hate the windshields but those are getting upgraded soon.

    This is my first bass boat and I keep trying to convince myself to upgrade to something newer... but, after reading so many praises for this hull here, I think I will stick with it for some time to come. I don't want to be that guy that regrets selling his Oldschool champ!

    I also own a 184FS with 175 Merc. Mine is a 90, have owned it since nov of 90 as 2nd owner. Great boat, you will not be dissappointed. Had motor rebuilt in 02 due to oil inj malfunction. As someone else stated good rough water boat for size. Just wish it had more storage.
