Well,we all know your boat is worth more than the ebay bidding.Ebay in my opinion is a place for bargain hunters and does not reflect what an item is worth on the open market.

I watch Ebay all the time for cars,trucks,boats,snowmobiles,atv's,etc and Ebay just does not bring the high dollars that the item would in a different type of advertisment.I had my Pro Street on Ebay and not one bid.I put it on another internet ad and it sold in two weeks and got my asking price.

I would suggest if you really want to sell your boat I would put it on BoatUS.com and it will sell.I think more people scout those ads before Ebay....I think Ebay sucks unless your a bargain hunter.

The owner of that boat is a member here.His boat is listed in the OSO classified.I considered that boat before I bought the SCS that I did.I was just not interested in a big hunkin motor like what he has.

My boat was a diamond in the rough when I bought it.A 7 out of a scale of 10.With the work that I've done to the boat and trailer it's a 9+ now.

My boat at 75 feels like it is going to become a sea plane
Cant even imagine 93MPH in a 23.6 hull.
