How much......?

[bassboy1]

Now, don't jump to any conclusions here, nothing is set in stone either way, but lets say that sometime in the next month, I had to put my Yazoo for sale, for one reason or another? What do you think would be a reasonable asking price? I am not looking for reasons to not sell it, as this is a what if scenario, with nothing really decided one way or another. Just need a number.

All the carpet will be installed, the sonars, and trolling motor will be included. Basically everything you see in the project will be included, aside from my Evinrude 4 deluxe, and the kicker bracket (hasn't yet been installed).

Thanks.

Hmm, I don't know. What's the list of stuff? Outboard, trolling motor, trailer. Also it's going to depends on the market. Compare with others on Craig's list in your area. If it was a reasonable price I know a guy in Illinois...(me) hahahahaha.

i think the vaule of your boat is really what you think it is worth you put all your time in labor in it you should know best what you want to sell it for

Nickk,.... It is about time you owned a boat.. don't you thimk??????

What's the list of stuff? Outboard, trolling motor, trailer.

Outboard is 1975 Evinrude 40 - rebuilt carbs, rebuilt lower unit, new spark plugs, points, and condensers.
Boat is a 1981 Yazoo 1542. Not sure which of the two models it is, as they made 2 with that dimension.
Trailer is presumably the same year, and has wheels, tires, coupler, and jack that are less than a year old. The bunks, rollers, bearings, springs, paint, and all the fasteners are new, since April.
Trolling motor is a 2001 MK All Terrain 40 pound thrust.
Console sonar is Eagle fishmark 480.
Bow sonar is Eagle fishmark 320.
All the structure is aluminum, and it is a very well designed layout - 8 foot rod locker, hatch designed to fit Plano 360 tackle boxes (9 I think) plus 4 more hatches without purposes. Also, the fuel hatch perfectly fits a 6 gal. tank, or 4 group 27 batteries, in boxes, for electric only. Bow battery box holds, and currently contains a group 24 starting battery, and a group 27 trolling battery.
All wiring is tinned marine grade wiring, with heat shrunk connectors.

Again, nothing is set in stone. Just trying to get a feeler, on the chance that the need arose.

I am trying to see how my number compares with other opinions. My number withheld to try to avoid a biased answer.

i am not trying to vaule you boat but that being said now with the economy the way it is it might be hard to get what you want i would list it at 3000.00 and go from there

Add-up every penny you've put into it, don't count anything for labor, then subtract 10% of the figure in front of you........that's about what someone will want to pay if you're lucky.

Too many people hurting for cash these days being forced to sell their belongings, and they're willing to part with things cheap, as opposed to not being able to make rent, pay utilities, or buy a tank of that "liquid gold" in order to be able to drive to work.....

Slimetime is right, stuff is going pretty cheap these days although I think you'll be able to turn a profit on it. Maybe sell the motor separately and sell it as an electric only set up. I just checked the Atlanta Craig's list and you can pick up used bass boats for under $5K, there's a 16' Tracker for under $2500.




Fishing Cop,
You're not kidding! I just don't have the room right now, I gotta consolidate some stuff to see if I can make it happen. Kinda low on the list regretfully.
