I am not sure on what the price should be on your boat, I am sure someone will chime in on that. I think alot of it has to do with the economy. I tried to sell my boat also without much luck.

I think you have a very nice looking boat and the upgrades and improvements are perfect.

The down sides are the year model which make it a 15 year old boat. I would assume with your location that it is a salt water boat which will hurt the price some even with the recent upgrades and as mentioned the economy is a challenge.

I hope you have it listed other places instead of just here on OSO. If not that is problem #1.

I would put the boat on e-bay and and set the reserve at the lowest $$$ amount you will accept and put a fair buy now price and see if that gets you some interested buyers.

My guess is that you will have to be under $30K.

Good luck

You have a very nice boat, and it looks like you have new, motor, interior, and drive. But that doesn't change the fact its a 15 year old boat. You need to be the nicest 1994 out there and price accordingly, 1994 boat.

Something you need to consider, new motor,drive, and int. Cold be considered normal upkeep for a salt water 15 year old boat. your going to need to be between 20-25K to move it soon.

here are some examples

the boat was in fresh water all his life , i get it from a guy in lake michigan 1 year and half ago. so the boat was in fresh water and was whit 150 hrs originals when i get it. now is in miami but has been in salt water just 50 hrs always stored out of the water in a closed warehouse.
i think that i can get something arround 28-30 , but to be clear i spend more than 36..

. thanks for thew replay, i was looking the boats that you showme, you are right but my boat is completely redone , ( was in fresh water). elctrical system. batteries , absolutely evrithing ( less gas tank, winshield. hinges) is new batteries, chargers sound system, gps , engine, wires , cables, ... i m willing to low the price.. are u a dealer ?? can you helpme to sale my boat?? maybe we arrange some price.. thanks alot

Its a GREAT boat, but right now you can buy 32 footers from the 90s in good shape with 500hps merc blue motors, I have seen a few and a friend bought just bought one. your hull is 25ft won't break 70mph, which puts the boat in the 20,000 class. you hardly ever make money on a boat. I am putting a 30,000 motor in my 24ft baja and a 28,000 drive, new extra glass work seats that are custom made not the baja seats and if I tried to sell it next year, I WOULD BE LUCKY IF I GOT bids of 20,000 to 25,000. for a 100mph boat. I plan to strip mine when its time to sell, most likely next summer cause I am working on a new custom hull in the 28foot range. and a friend has a custom sutphen 32 05 with a 850hp blower motor new in 05 it was 130,000, he has been trying to move it since 07 for over a 100,000 and is now down to 62,000 and still no bites. you should keep using it while your selling it enjoy its a nice boat but this market sucks . and do as doc said put it on ebay and make sure you tell them its a northen boat and only has 50hrs down here details on a boat help sell it. good luck and enjoy it while selling it.

I can help with advise, you are too far away for any consignment, if I have a customer looking for a nice/clean 27 I will just send them to you, (nothing expected in return).

thanks for your answer. yes we are a little far , but if you can find a client for my boat i m willing to low the price for u so you can make a profit.
this is my email. if you want i can sendyou some pictures and a price for you to try to resale. thanks alot

Unfortunately the work you put into the boat you will not get out. It is for your enjoyment only or maybe push someone who is shopping for the same year. If you want to get out quick you'll need to be low 20's or high teen's. You should be able to hols out longer though to get posibly $25K but no more.
