A 1996 with 6s just sold for less than 80 ad is still in the classifieds. Compare year equipment and condition to yours and go from there.

That boat seemed to need alot of work to make it nice.

I would not sell it for anything less than 90, what else are you going to buy out there that nice and fast for that kind of money? that #6 boat needed about 30 k min to get it even close to acceptable!

overlimits 06-10-2010 05:02 PM

thanks for the input, I also heard that six boat was on the rough side, 388 slingshots seem to be holding some value, can you compare in value only?

johnlomant 06-14-2010 07:04 AM

That paint is sick.:evilb:

overlimits 06-14-2010 12:34 PM

thanks alot, wanted to do more to the sides but ran out of time had a poker run to make in two days, so we cut it sort, wanted to get back on it over the winter but to busy, never time to work on my own stuff. thinking of selling only to get into something a litttle cheaper.

SLOWRIDE-388 06-14-2010 05:39 PM

very nice paint, love the colors. good luck on the sale

TCBoss302 06-15-2010 09:48 AM

Any cabin pics?

overlimits 06-15-2010 11:23 AM

not right now, pretty basic cabin it does have a V-berth, still on the fence if we really want to let it go right now, the weather just starting to get nice here in Michigan. Really wanted to know what you guy's thought it was worth to see if I could get enough of my $ back. The thought of selling just makes me sick really love the boat, Just got it finished last year, now I might have to sell it. Thanks for the help. Dan

richanton 06-20-2010 12:56 PM

IMO, $90k is too cheap. Don't sell if you don't have to. I'm always looking around for deals, and I don't think you will be able to replace it with anything comparable for that price.

Sure, there are some cheap boats around but most or them need lot's of work or total updates.

overlimits 06-22-2010 06:33 PM

thanks, kind of thinking same thing, I like my boat to much to let it go cheap.

Jupiter Sunsation 06-24-2010 07:44 AM

Great re-do.......as far as pricing it certainly isn't going up in value anytime soon! The boat is 14 years old and isn't getting newer. You may find it easier to sell a freshly redone boat now (even though you aren't getting the top dollar you want) then it will be to sell that same boat in 5 years.

I have a buddy with a 02 42 Fountain with less than 100 hours. Boat is mint, he has waxed it more times than he has used it! He had an offer of 175K on it two years ago, he was holding out for 200K+. He owns it free and clear so his idea was if I can't get 200K I will keep it because I can't replace it for 175K.........He just got another offer, 125K and that 175K two years ago is looking like that was top dollar. Now take that 175K out in THIS market and he can easily replace that 02 42 with something newer and faster!

n20michael 07-05-2010 01:01 AM

Tough call, I can see "both sides" its a crap market out there right now, but, replacing it with something similiar wont be cheap! There are still plenty of guys with deep pockets out there
