Crestliner for sale, whats a fair price?

[laserbrn]

You may be right. I'm a bad judge I suppose. I just see a 12 or 13 year old boat with a 135hp i/o and I would be leary about sinking a bunch of money into it. If the motor has low hours and everything is super clean I could maybe see inching it up towards $6000.00. If you are willing to wait for the *right* buyer it could be just right. If you want it sold I'd say somewhere a little lower will go faster. I know people like these aluminum crestliners and they should last a long time, I'd just rather have an OB as dropping 6k on a ? engine with a ? outdrive? Each of them are likely 13 years old. How much would a 13 year old car be worth? Why would a 13 years old boat be worth more? It's seen more abuse and more periods of sitting without running which is the real killer. I dunno...I could be off like I said as it's really a question of supply and demand more than valuating each aspect of it.

Yeah, after a bit more research on the market I'd say that's a fair price for that boat. They seem to be pretty sought after and that helps a lot. Good luck with the sale, I'm sure it'll make someone a very happy boat owner.

thanks for the input. i did a lot of research before i posted this, and if the seats and carpet were in better condition, it would be worth $2000 more, give or take a little, but it runs good and has no mechanical issues. plus i put about 1k into it. Have alredy had a few calls or so, but very one that calls is over 100 miles away. sucks trying to sell a boat in the desert. not going to budge to much on the price. maybe after summer i would drop it. but for now i have a boat to fish with. i do have a buyer who says he is coming up friday. i almost hope he doesn't buy it. lol. I am looking for a 14' with trailer for myself now.

Just a little fishing boat. I want at least a 15 HP on it thought. Something I can pull with my car. To much gas to pull the big boat with my truck anymore. Gonna sell the truck next.

yes it can go in DVL. I bought it out there and it had a DVL sticker on it. I have installed a trolling plate on it, and it trolls about 1 1.5 mph when fully throttled down.
