Close to making a trade,boat has 325 hours,never an engine issue,but for good resale,top,bottom,and blowers probrably need a refreshening. He was quoted 10K for everything,is that in the ballpark? If we trade,I was thinking about offering the boat at X $ including a rebuild,or discount 10K for the boat as-is. Some buyers may want to take a chance and save 10K,or maybe they have a buddy that can do it for less.Again,no issues,but it is in the time frame for freshening. Am I approaching this the right way?

I agree with it is time for the freshening. Not sure if the price is in the ballpark or not. Drives may need a freshening too, I'd at least have a look at them to see how the lower gears are doing.

what year? how fast?

I would get your own quote just to make sure that price is correct.....personally I'd want the boat discounted as is and rebuild it myself (with an intercooler and more boost!!!)

I agree,of course you and I have already been there,done that:drink:

That is hard because what if they run into a snag or unexpected problem during refresh and costs go up? If I were a buyer I'd like to see the work done and add the 10k to the price before I bought. I know some here may want otherwise (ie do it themselves or custom rebuild) but I don't want the hassle to be honest. Plus if you modify it, most insurance companies say bye bye.
