29' fever opinion needed

This all also depends on how bad this guy wants to sell the boat. If he is hard up for money and must get rid of it, or has already purchased another boat, etc - you might be able to negotiate a hell of a lot more than if he doesn't mind whether it sits....

I have the same 29' Fountain with new 540 and Imco drive. 700 hp This would make a great boat for someone that doesn't want the headaches and fuel, weight, expense of twinn engines. fresh water boat from las vegas "lake mead" just 38k on trailer. if interested i can send pics.

Ive been searching for a while too and 39 without a trailer is probably high but with a trailer I dont think it is. Most boats of this age are in the 40's and 50's.
Alot of people think its a piss poor economy which is it is right now. But there just as many people that have money right now that own boats like this that dont. Unless somebody is to the point of getting rid of the boat or lose their home they are going to give it away. I would gamble if its an original owner or even a second owner hes got it paid off so its not like he loses a payment by getting rid of it.

This boat your looking at was for sale in MI a year or 2 back. Believe he wanted low/mid 40's for it when I looked at it with the trailer. It had very low hours on it also (less than 100). If he still wants 39k for it with no trailer he will be sitting on it for a while. Cash talks and honestly a 29 with twins is not a popular boat. There was a 96' 29 with Factory twin 500HP's and a trailer that could have been bought for $32k with a trailer right around the corner from me...it sat for 4 months and finally got repo'd. I would think your close at $30k.
