    Starting Price on Boat

    First, let me say I know this is not a selling site. If admin needs to remove no offense.

    I have a 04' ZX 225 w/ Yamaha 225HPDI. Approx. 400 hrs. I am the 3rd owner. I have had the boat for 5 years. Service every year and fish 12 months out the year. 2 year old 112 Fortrex ,2 Lowrance 8" Gen 1, Down and Side Structure scan. 4 Batteries 2 years old. New Tires. Hydraulic jackplate. Trailer is in 6 out of 10. Boat is 7 out of 10. Few nicks and 1 small rip in the passenger seat seam, but boats gel coat still shines. What is a good price to start at. Any advise would be good.

    Thanks

    With prices what they are on used boats right now, I would think somewhere in the neighborhood of $20k. With the older electronics and no spot-lock trolling motor, you might not get that much, but it's a good starting point I think.

    Don't listen to this shit.

    We all know what WE would pay for a boat, but the market is insane right now and has been for several years.

    Comparative boats are being listed for 20k+ and selling for 18+

    I looked recently at a 04 Ranger 519. Similar electronics, TM, and shape. Guy got 24k for it. Crazy.

    It's a sellers market. everyone is behind on production with shortages.
    not many boats available!

    Hell I had to order a 2021 pick-up from ford and they said expect 3 months or longer!
    They just don't make 1/2 ton, long-bed pickups with V8's any more.
