I need some advice. I have a 1990 stratos 201 that I’ve not used in over a year and needs some work. Original motor, Johnson v6 200, has never given me any trouble and a rebuilt lower unit was put on 4 years ago and barely used. The seats are shot and the carpet needs replaced. Electronics are outdated, 2 lowrance 590Cs. The body is sound but has more beauty marks than she deserves, including a large chip on the right side where the rear corner bounced up and struck the bottom of a metal dock frame when an eager coangler hoped off with a little too much gumption. Trolling motor is a 24v 70lb minnkota.
So I come to you for advice. Do I sell the boat and make a down payment on a side by side and hope to be able to buy another down the road? What’s it worth? Am I better off to put new seats in, carpet it, repair chip and repaint or wrap then sell?
Thanks in advance.
