And drill the air bleed hole out in the throttle plate for the lumpier cam. Some don't do it but it really should be drilled out.

It's not just on Sunny's as AJ would like you to think it is. I've seen what I believe are unrealistic prices on many different brands. My take is as a seller you can always go down but pretty hard to go up on your asking price!

Ahhh come on Knot! Don't come dragging me through the mud!!
Btw my boat is for sale... And based off the MattBMiller 2012 price guide, I think its a fair deal @ $90k... This one won't last long!!

Could not agree more.

I have found out that its not that a potential buyer does not think your boat is worth what you may be asking. Its that your boat is only worth what a bank is willing to lend for it. I had an approval on a loan, srove four hours to look at it, made the deal on a 32 fountain fever. Only to have the underwriter pull the approval when they discovered it was a fountain. Then when I raised enough hell the underwriter gave the approval back but limited the amount they would lend to 80% of used trade in value!!!!!!!! Mind you my credit score was mid-high 700's, debt to income was 19% and the max was 45%, and my wife was also on the loan application. Basically its tough sleding for potential buyers and the high performance end of things seems to be worse.

Gotta find a new institution my friend, I was in and out in 10 minutes with 720 CS and higher debt/income than what u had. They were just jerking ya around to be Aholes! Unfortunately those of us that pay our bills have to pay the price from those who do not... (*cough *cough... Jupiter....*cough)

Try a smaller local bank instead of any mega bank. It took me less than 5 mins to get approved when I bought 2.5 years ago. I had 35% to put down tho

Choking on sperm again AJ?

100% correct. Keep in mind a brand new 32/6.2 boat in 2004 was 99K (with Mitcher T paint and McCleod interior). Sunsation called it a "break out" promotion (288 was 79K w/496 H0).

Yet Shogren has this 04 32 6.2 boat listed at 69K: http://www.offshoreonly.com/classifi...o47821-en.html

Boat lost 30K in 9 years.....but part of the reason was the "boom" pushed 32's into the mid 100's and heavily optioned into the 200's. Some 288's got into the mid-100's heavily optioned.


It is not just Sunsation, a new 35/496 HO Executioner could be had in the 120's in 2003-05 yet that same boat today is 73K : http://www.offshoreonly.com/classifi...o44825-en.html

or 80K http://www.offshoreonly.com/classifi...o48328-en.html
