Easy everyone, Dave P. and Typhoon Marine are some of the fairest and nicest people in the offshore industry. Let's face it a boat's value is in the eye of the beholder, owner, wanter, wisher,etc. Besides, boats like Cig., OL, Apache, Skater etc. will always get more $$ for their names and maintain their value because of it.

Not to mention the loss from opportunity cost. Had the seller sold that boat for $75K early last fall, that money invested in a good mutual fund that follows the stock market would now have a value of over $85K.
I love when people have a $65K boat and think it's worth $85K. A boat is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. If the boat was truly an $85K boat, it would have sold for $85K shortly after it was listed. This boat has been for sale for a long time.
Wake up sellers.

The boat is priced fairly for what it is and will sell close to that price.

If it didn't need work - It would be priced over $120k.
As for no one has touched it at $85k....it was sold 4 times already but the banks would not finance the buyers for 15yrs.
Gotta love the Apache experts - OOPS! I mean guys
