1997 38' Sonic
 

I am looking at a 997 38' Sonic in good condition w/ twin 502 MPI's (No trailer).

Can anyone tell me what they might think its worth?

Go to Boat Trader Online and perform some comps.

I have a 1999 at Offshore Performance that I need to move. It is perfect with HP 500's. It is the best one out there. Take a look. www.Offshore-performance.com

Nice boat, if they could take a trade on it, it probably would be in my driveway by now.

Take another look, they might work with you.

I shot them an email, but haven't heard back yet.

Catwoman- have you bought anything?

billville- No reply to my email. Last time I spoke with a salesman there, a couple months ago, they would have expected you to take the trade, not them.

Most dealers these days want to avoid taking trades, and I think they miss out on a lot of business because of it.

Re: 1997 38' Sonic
 

We absolutely don't have a problem with considering any trade-in.... it's just that in a brokerage situation, the dealership would have to essentially buy the trade from the customer, and the seller of the brokerage boat gets cashed-out, goes on his way, and the dealership is left with their money "on-the-line", on a boat that they might not really want. This is not to say that situation has never happened, but it's certainly not typical.

I got an email from the sales dept and from Hugh today. The delayed response was due to an IT issue with the website. They are still on my short list of dealers worth doing business with. :drink:

Thank-you for the response gentlemen ! Definately a class act.

If it helps, my trade is just as clean as the 31 you sold BN !

Re: 1997 38' Sonic
 

As far as taking a trade on a boat you don't own.... can't blame you!

Re: 1997 38' Sonic
 

I will second that, GO4BROKE's 31 is absolutely mint!

Re: 1997 38' Sonic
 

Thanks Brian! Have you run the boat lately ?

The OffShorePerformance folks are first class. I bought my 2004 386 from them new and I have nothing but good things to say about the entire crew. I highly recommend them and hope you can work something out.
