Default 2003 lightning value?

hey guys looking for some help. What would a 2003 38 lightning be worth with 500 efi's and xz drives. Around 50 hours. Trailer included. 85-90? Looking to pull trigger pretty quick.

I am guessing without knowing the boat or condition, but 70-100K I got to call you out a little only 50 hours????? In 7 Years??? Just a heads up if I looked at any boat with that ratio I would breakout the scanner on the EFI motors.

38 isn't staggered, is it? IMHO, staggered is the way to go. Way easier to work in the engine compartment. Read that story about the sunk Formula 412 due to a bad bilge pump hose. That's an example of the kind of thing that's easy to see in a staggered set up, and impossible on side-by-side. Really: there is absolutely no way to inspect or repair the bilge pumps on my boat without removing at least one engine, and sometimes both!

latter 38's came in both a 'SEMI" staggered and then full Staggered.
Not sure what years.

Looks like in 04 they were staggered.
