    Thinking about upsizing!

    Hey guys I'm thinking about gettin a bigger boat so I might put mine up for sale.
    Its in great shape and still have about 8 months warranty left on the motor.
    Does $13,500 sound reasonable? I have a humminbird 798ci with down and side imaging that might go too for a little more.
    What do yall think?

    looks good check nada guides for book value on it. remember with economy way it is that its very hard to get retail value out of one right now. Most are going 10-20% under the guides to sell.

    That depends. My buddy just sold my old boat and the Nada on some boats are jacked up. Some are extremely high, like his showed with in 1 grand of what I paid new for the boat 4 yrs later. Some are extremely low too. Look up the diff in an 09 and 10 Puma FTD.

    The NADA is $12,870 as average but I feel this boat is above average for a 2006 model plus I changed the chrome steel wheels to aluminum Triton wheels, trolling motor is 1 year old (Minn Kota 70lb maxum variable), 3 New batteries, Stereo/CD player, New fish finder at bow, plus a few other things.
    I dont wanna ask way too much but naturally want to get all I can for it.
    Just curious what you guys think is a fair price?

    You will not get your money back on most add ons to a boat most of the time....just an FYI.

    Heres the deal IMO. You might can get more and I would ask a lil more, but be prepared if the buyer is financing thats all they will get financed.

    i think you should ask what YOU want for it..It really just depends on how bad you want to get rid of it or not...but the reality with this situation and a perspective buy is exactly what jigginjeff stated...and most of the time its usually not 100% financing on used boats

    This is not a listing to sell my boat! I have not even decided if I am going to sell it yet.
