Posted in general discussion also, but I thought Id try here also. Alright guys, need some help. Ive decided to put my boat up for sale. I put an ad or two out there and I think I priced it a little to high for what the market will bring right now. I just had the motor done top to bottom and priced it a little higher trying to possibly recoup some of the money I have in the motor.
Anyway, its a 1992 Baja Outlaw, 24 foot. Fresh 454 mag top to bottom built by a Baja dealer with about 6 hours run time on it if that, with all receipts. I was told it should be around 425 horse. Bravo one w/ ss 4blade, Corsa silent choice, Sony and Bose audio, Standard Horizons gps, 1993 Float On trailer, and all accessories. Boat is not in perfect condidtion , but very nice for the year. Has a few minor wear and tear blemmishes, but overall good condition. What can I realistically expect to get in this market? Also, in the southern states, do boat sales keep going year round, or do they start dying off just like up north? Thanks for the help.

I would say you can get 10K but without seeing the boat hard to tell. Facts are your boat is 17 years old, that starts to really narrow the market. Kind of like what is a 1992 Vette worth with some blemishes and a rebuilt motor? This market is hurting you also.
In your situation if you are looking to buy another boat you would be better off to trade it in, and get retail value off the new boat? Just a thought?

What about you southern boaters, do boat sales die right off like they do up north here, or do they stay steady all year round?
