I thought I had a pic without the cover on haha but oh well.

I posted these pics to get a feel from you guys what you think I can get out of the boat if I trade. I am also considering selling by owner.

It all depends on what you are trading for, and how much money the dealer can play with. You can show just about any number you want on trade. If you are buying something that the dealer has 50K to play with, they will probably show you and outstanding trade number. Change that to a boat they only have 20K to play with and watch your trade go down considerably.

I just sold my 1999 280 / 502. Immac cond. 240 hrs. End of season and the market is brutal. Some guy on ebay tried to convince me to take 17K!! Jerk. Still gave it away. Since I'm in NY, no one knows what the hell a PQ is. Even tried to trade it on a car. Dealers wouldn't even give me a low ball offer. Wound up selling it out of state.... Good Luck

Great time to buy though

Educated guess in real money is probably low to mid 30's if you find the right buyerand the boats as well equipped as it appears, and as the season winds down, that's about to be a lot more difficult.
A suggestion would be to either clean or replace the steering wheel (looks nasty in the pictures) and repair the rear seat where it appears to be pulling at some of the seams. To get premium money right now people are expecting exceptional quality/value.

Not meant to be offensive, just stating the obvious flaws I saw in your pictures.

That was my original boat. Glad you liked it and made it faster . Someone got a great boat at a great price.

hp500, we loved the boat, sad to see it go, only 237hrs!! with 2 kids playing travel ball every weekend, we never used it. Maybe in a few years we'll be in the market for a clean 31' Sonic...
