OSO Permissible Discussion? Figuring A Value.
I could use some help trying to nail down the value of this 2001 248 Crownline Bow Rider 496 Mag HO 300 Hrs with full record of maintenance. Boat is immaculate, zero scratches on hull, outdrive or prop. Full canvas and covers along with every available option, all immaculate. Dual axle bunk trailer also in near perfect shape. Always kept under roof when not on the water. Really having trouble nailing down a value as it seems to be a moving target and prone to wild swings at least on NADA. It is rare that it was ordered with that particular engine package.

Hate to say I don’t think that engine package will add much to the value. Maybe a thousand or two over small block boats. Sucks because that had to have been a pretty pricy upgrade when new.
Unforunatley I don’t think the person looking for the small open bow family boats is too focused on the power. It comes down a lot more to room, how well it is used, can my kid tube off the back of it etc.
Could be completely wrong, and hope I am for your sake when selling. Best of luck.

This is just a guess. $15-20k. The boat should be worth more than this with low hours and excellent condition. The bad thing is that it is a 2001 and banks don’t like to finance old boats. If you find someone that appreciates the upgraded power, you might get a little more. Good luck with the sale.

I was thinking 20K, maybe a bit more if you find the right buyer that appreciates what condition it is in.

For a 24' bowrider that boat has a odd engine package considering it isn't a hull built with that use in mind and it's going on 19 years old. I'd suggest he price it to get rid of it by Memorial Day or plan on storing it until it's a year older. $15K.

Fuel systems go completely bad just sitting and leaving motor oil in the bottom (pan) for years is not good either. Properly stored for humid climates is important as well.
There is months when I open up engine compartments and it looks like someone just power washed the complete engine compartment and engine. Boat sealed up like a drum. One of the reasons for that.
