H2O- I have a 1999 440 Trojan in excellent condition that will go for about the price you are looking for. PM me if interested. Pictures are @ brokerageshop.com.

I think with trimmed down production in 2004 the buyers market was tapered down a lot. New sales incentives along with low interest rates on new boats are hurting used boat owners a lot. I made an offer on a boat that was listed for 430k and went in with 320k with a survey. After the survey and finding lots of problems I could see why he dropped his price. Buyer beware

H20,
Good luck on your search! Are you wanting to stay with an express? Do you prefer diesel? If so the Trojan/Carver 44 is a lot of boat for the cash and particularly soft on the resale side. Have a cheap deal on a 50'plus Sunseeker with bridge 1993 or 94 fresh interior, few details except should be way under market price. However it is not an express.

you guys are a great help been in same situation but with a lot less money 50,000 range been tracking a good deal or deals for a year now i am wondering if some of these boats are really for sale or not , track blue books other sales history etc. and every broker says the same thing seller will be insulted i do not think they show offers if seller is not on there butt ,made 45,0000 offer on 55,000 boat and almost got same answer thanks reading your advice
