I'm looking at a 176XT locally that is for sale. This thing looks almost immaculate in my mind for an 8 yr old boat. The guy (2nd owner) is asking $10,500 OBO. Here are the specs.
50hp Mercury 2-stroke, skeg even has 100% paint still on it
Stainless prop with no marks on it
MotorGuide Tour 24v, 75lb troller
1 yr old deep cell trolling batts
3 bank charger.
Crappy Fish finder on console
Hull hasn't a scratch or chip on it.
Carpet good with no stains and very little wear.
Seats all look brand new.
Trailer still looks new and i didn't see any rust on it. Tires also look new still even though i'd probably replace due to age.
Was always kept in a heated/cooled garage when not in use.
Any idea if this is fair? I know it is a low HP, but my research says it'll do about 35, which is plenty fast for me and a first boat.
