http://www.offshoreonly.com/classifi...o56376-en.html

for whats out there for sale i would only offer him 105k for that tiger

Go back to the Donzi section^^^^^

Gotta love forums. Guy comes on here asking very specifically for something and first 2 posts are for something different.

please, tell me what it's worth then or better yet what will someone pay for it. last time i checked it was still a buyers market, please do correct me if i am wrong. i'm not hear calling the boat a pos, but merely pointing out facts that some just don't ever want to hear. i memory serves correctly, i believe there are a few below the 100k mark that haven't sold and the yellow and blue one is beautiful! when you can buy 130mph 32 and 36 skaters for under 100k with fresh power and six's hanging off the back what does it make a bravo boat worth? BUYERS MARKET MY FRIENDS

maybe im a retard.... but what does the title say? T/S = twin step??? how many steps are in a 04 tiger? last time i checked only 2.. and to top it all off its a fresh water boat from lake ontario .. maybe the deal breaker on it is that its UNDER 150k

lol

I don't think you are right or wrong. What I know is that good quality used boats are getting harder & harder to find. I think the used boat market is unique with little quality inventory. If a buyer wants a nice quality used boat I believe it becomes a sellers market if you have a well kept turn key boat for sale.

Sorry to derail the thread. I don't know of a nice T/S other than what is listed here.

Looks nice.

That tiger looks really really clean, so I don't think a mint freshwater boat is going to be bought for anywhere 105

I'm not looking for a boat but somebody tell the owner that if 105K buys that Tiger please PM wiring instructions.. I have nothing to do this weekend except pick up my new Cig apparently!!! :) :)

Patrick

Roger that. Not for 105. A nice salt runner maybe can be had for that

I'm pretty sure Ed won't take $105k for his Tiger. Before I bought my Top Gun, I spoke with him about his Tiger. He sent me a lot of pictures of it, all of which looked good. He appears to be a guy that is passionate about his boats and Im sure whoever ends up with it will be extremely happy. Who knows, mine might be had for the right price! :)[ATTACH=CONFIG]521232[/ATTACH]

There's what seems to be a very nice looking 2009 Top Gun on ebay listed for $184,900 or best offer. I don't know if $150k buys it, but IMO it wouldn't hurt to talk to the seller.

I feel like I make the same comment on all of these threads. With a cheap boat you almost always end up with a boat that you sink money into. Boat values vary based on conditions and updates. The T/S that I have seen that sell near or under the $100k mark need exhaust, interior, paint work and have tons of hours on them. How can someone compare a well loved boat that has been maintained with an open check book. Don't get me wrong I am well aware you don't get your money back, but the beat boat does not set the market. Not to mention the guys on here that always talk about a buyers market and talking values down are not even in the market for boats like these so their opinions are useless.

One track mind here. For some reason I see T/S Cig and picture "T/S Top Gun" on the side of the wind screen.

Thanks for the detailed response.

Thanks for the heads up on the Tiger. There just not for me. I updated my first post to show I am looking for a 35 - 38 ts. If someone has one there thinking about selling let me know.

Thanks
Wes

Smokin gun has an 03 TS 525 ITS boat 115 firm

Please let me know where I can find a 130 MPH 36 Skater with 6's and fresh power for under a 100k? I would be interested in deal like that.

If you'll consider a 35, you need to get ahold of Luke (LHZ) that owns Dreamers old Playboy Cig. Things in perfect condition for around 90k I believe. Stunning ride. Mahoganny floors, fresh power, all gone through.

how's 80 sound. must be the exception to the rule???? spotless clean, updated, mint and well below 100k and says t/s on the side

there is a newer race boat with 6's and 525. boat needs to be put back together. it's a 36 and can be bought for 40k. nothing wrong with the boat. 36 with 5 on boxes that is mint can be had for 60k maybe even less if you have cash in hand. there are three more that i know about, some 32 36 and 40 and all BELOW 100k

how about the blue and yellow tiger in fl with 575? the boat looks mint in the pics. i know pics can be deceiving but the harder i looked the nicer it seemed to be. i also know what you are going to say about a salty dog but it is certainly worth a look and i can't remember the price off hand but it was low, somewhere around the 100 mark. maybe someone will post a link or a few pics of it

would that be directed towards me??? if so, lol how in the world would you know what my bank account looks like, what i have for boats or if i'm in the market or not? i came on here with good intentions, not to catch sh-t from people who don't like my assessment of what I personally think a boat is worth. hhmmm. i won't get into a pissing match with you but it sounds like you took offense to MY price point on what I personaly feel the boats are worth, maybe you wish your boat was worth more??? don't know, but i think we all wish our boats were worth what they were in an 06 07 08 market. those days are long gone

Ok so it's your opinion right? We know they are worth. Why are you in the Cig forum? You don't own one do you? Are just hoping that prices come down to what you believe to fair so you can buy one? I never understand why someone gets so strong headed about the value of a boat that they have never seen in person nor have plans to buy. What is your point? As far as the yellow Tiger for sale you are making judgments about a boat that again you have not seen, what if those pics are 10 years old?? Also I think that paint has been polarizing for some. But hey I think it appears to be a good price buy a plane ticket and go get it. Then come and tell us it's mint and that your new purchase just set the market for T/S Tigers. No pissing match here either.

Sure like to know where these are? ? pm me if you want

There are very few available for sale! If there were a bunch of TG T/S for sale, then we would all know what they are worth by which ones sell. How many 2000-2004, 525's are out there for sale. Many people looking, including me, and cannot find them.

I don't think the 525 came until 2003. Smokin gun has an 03 525 for sale for 115k. Also there was an 04 in New York for 135 and another 04 in Florida for 135. So your right, not a ton for sale and prices depend on hours/condition.

off the subject but..... do all years top gun t/s with ITS boxes have shorties?
anyone?

I don't think so, most have standard length sport masters I believe??

My T/S Mystique has ITS w/std length Sportmasters.

i found trying to sell my boat became more of a hassel !!!! i got offers for $85.000 another guy guy wanted to give me $5000 cash up front take the boat and make $1000 payments every month tll paid for ..this guy actually called me several times and was serious...and a bunch of strokers that basically had no idea what a cig was ..one guy argued with me that the boat had the wrong props and drives on it .32 bravo 1s and ITS sportmasters from the fact ..i hung up pulled the adds ..done wasting my time
all the bull $hitt and not one person ever looked at it ...

Exactly ^^^ I know I wont get a third of what I have in mine IF I tried to sell it. FK IT---- this beeeeeotch is just gonna keep rocking MY World!!

I understand your guys side of the argument because we have two boats on the market, but from the buyers side, it is a totally different approach.

When I'm buying something I want to find the boat/guy that is in total desperate need of the money and has to get rid of his boat because of financial reasons. When buying, I try to buy the boat at a price that I feel, if I had to I could sell the boat that week.

For instance, the guy that called smokin gun and offered $85K. If smokin gun just lost his job, needed to pay his mortgage, etc..., that $85K check would've been cashed before you could blink. But, you guys are in good financial standing, and don't have to sell. If you dig deep enough though, you will always find the guy who is about to loose his house and needs the toys gone.

The key to buying right is being a vulture......

The other side of the coin here is that if someone is selling due to financial problems, chances are that the boat they own has been neglected over some time and will need some additional work.

Very true, buyer beware, but sometimes you get lucky if you do your due diligence.

The other thing is that most of these fire sales are gone. So, what you have is buyers who saw the low numbers years ago trying to buy boats from the people who are financially stable and wont drop their price. This leads to people getting frustrated and pulling their boats off of the market, which is why if you go into the classifieds today, you will be greatly disappointed with what's listed for sale.

Really, you didn't want to do the land contract thing haha. Selling is the worst part of all this and is just a pain in the azz. These boats are getting harder to find and yours is a beautiful boat at a great price. You will probably sell it from word of mouth when a real buyer comes asking around. Good luck

Funny I did have a guy wanting to swap some land
In Wisconsin for it .. If I thought for one minute I could
Get enough out of it in parts I would strip it
Be a shame though
