380 Needs a new home ASAP.
 

I know this sounds like just another dead horse beating, selfless plug but since this forum has been dead I thought I would try to get some feedback. I've been told it is time for a change in venue. I have listed my boat on OSO and a few other places for what I think is a fair price. I am far from getting out of the sport but I really want to move into a trailerable sport cruiser such as a Formula SS, Wellcraft Excalibur, or something in that direction The market obviously sucks right now but I would entertain trades if anyone is or knows someone looking to move in the Avenger 380 direction. For those that have seen my 97' 380 know it is spotless, turnkey with lots of amentities. I forgot to mention it is the fastest 97' on the market :D I would not want to sell it but the wife wants a bit more room for the new addition. Give me some thoughts on this, if for no other reason than to move this forum along a bit.

The market does suck,In todays market I would think low to mid 60s to get people to call.
If it was my boat I would keep it,not worth selling/giving away.
good luck.

You might to get on a few of the boats you are thinking about & check them out. You may not pick up as much additional room as you think. And if you do that extra cupboard may cost you 25-50k!:eek:

lol, I keep telling my wife we already have a sport cruiser.

In pretty much the same situation as Perfectmix, heavily debating moving up to something bigger....and keep thinking about those sport cruisers. The debate is move into a 38 Avenger or Formula SS? I'm leaning towards the 38 Avenger, now just need to figure out what to do with my 29 Enticer.

Wow... it seems we all are in the same boat kinda... :grinser010:

Good luck fellas...

Probably think I'm nuts, but I say these PQ (pleasure)/performance boats use less fuel than the cruisers. A buddies 330 SS works pretty hard to see 50 mph, maybe 4800rpm. Our 340 cruises an easy 53mph at 3600rpm.

Shawn, I have no complaints about my 380. Probably one of the best 38' Performance boats to spend long weeksnds on. I'm just looking for a boat I can leave in the water at the Harbor. I refuse to leave my PQ in the water for anything more than a couple of days even though I have an anual slip.
BTW. Nice pictures of your trip up the St. Mary's I did that trip a few years ago it was great.

I was going to buy a Formula 330SS and decided on the Avenger. The PQ has the same headroom and the same size cabin. The only difference was the cockpit seating. And the Formula is 10'6" wide. I know the PQ rides better and is much faster. And it was much cheaper.

I don't see it listed for sale on oso or boattrader
