At one time the 29 was called a 27. Seems like they had a 27 Fever and a 27 Fever II. The original had bucket seats. The Fever II was a little deeper and added bolsters.

The value is really going to br based on the condition. If all mech is in good/great cond and gel and upholstery is good/great. I would say 20-25K ?????.

The boat was NEVER built with TRS drives. There were only two built with twin small blocks on Bravos. One red gel one white. Both had bucket seats and were the old fever I. (No Bolisters)

Let me add this. In 1986 only the 10 Meter and the 12 Meter were built. If this boat is around this era, and has TRS drives, it must be an early 8.8 meter. ALL early 27 Fevers (now called the 29) had a swim platform.

86 they made the 8.8 or 29' had no built in platform. It then became the 32 with a platform before the step boats where made.
