    183 gambler question?

    What is a reasonable price for this 183 gambler. Hull only. He Says it has a solid floor and transom. Needs carpet wire pumps everything! The seats and hatches aren’t even mounted. I wonder why it’s such a wreck? What do you guys think this worth? I kinda want to buy it, but it’s going to cost a lot to restore. HELP

    Top cap has been painted or re-done. Also check floor in front of seats that's where they start to rot. If the price is right it is a gambler great boat in its day. I think it's worth $2000-3000

    good luck.

    Double check top cap to hull at transom and make sure its solid.

    Hard to tell from picture, but I would think $500.

    I think the pre 1992 hulls were more difficult to drive. Look at Hull ID # for the model year.
