High end of a 93 35 lightning with 500hp's is about 40k book value that is where the previously stated number came from. I'm not looking to lowball or offend anyone but I also can't see paying more than a boat is worth. It's hard to sell a boat in today's market, I know it took me over a year to sell a 29 that was priced lower and as clean as any I've seen on the market today.

Not very many priced right for this market, most are priced on what they think they are worth or what they owe! Oh well, I will wait for a good deal. I think Scott Shogren's article on here says it all!

does not look like he is giving them away...just saying.. http://www.pier57.com/web/used/Fount...inois/5375524/ |
The truth is that the market is FLOODED with used fountains, especially 35 single step. In this poor. market which mr. Shogren just wrote a great article about, that means all performance boat prices are drivin way down and coupled with the fact that there are an abundance of 35's out there that drives the market even lower for that brand or model. Like it or not that is what it is and if you don't have your boat priced just right then you will have it for sale for a long long time. I was able to sell mine in less then a month. Due to the fact it was mint and priced lower then every other sonic in its class.

Well theres your price range... should be takers on a $40K offer since there are so many for sale in the $60-110K range

Nobody is saying to offer 45k for a 2005 executioner twin 496ho. But when there are several that have bin for sale for over a year at 70-80k then that's telling you something. Then you see another for 90k and you say holy sh!t this guy needs a clue.

did you ever think that boats are for sale for a while because people cant afford to buy them and NOT because they are not worth the money????

It was an 04 35.
Still dont think you can touch any decent single step for under $50K. |
