man thats a nice looking boat. I would think between 16,000 and 18,000. The market is way down and being you are from texas that will usually lower resale value because of more use and the longer season.

Man, you think you could work out some kind of deal for shipping that baby to Michigan? I would definately be interested. Let me know what you come up with for an asking price. Brad

Why are you cutting her loose? Are you getting another one?

The first Champ I ever fished in was about a 1992 and was about the same color scheme. The owner brought it to GA when he moved--from Texas.

I think that you will get more for it in TX for several reasons. One, the economy there seems to be in better shape than other places. Second, Champion enjoys a good name recognition in East TX, and being in the flatland, people will appreciate its performance more. Third, the long fishing season is TX is an advantage, because the more people can use something the more they feel they are getting their money's worth.

I can't tell the condition of the boat for sure, but it looks good.

I'm normally not a fan of Blue or Green on boats but in your case I'll make an exception, NO I'm not gonna buy it but I really like the color scheme. Check NADA.com, pull it to a few dealers and see what they will give you on trade for a new model XXX compare your #'s and what you want to get out of it. Stand firm on what you believe you want for it, if the offer is $100.00 less than what you think you need eat the C-note.

I'd guess around 15-16K

Dude, you mean you've never liked my boat?? WT

BTW, thats a sweet boat there. I think you need to add a thousand to the price just for the Cowboys Star on the trailer. WT

I figured it would increase the value here in Texas and hurt it out of state thanks for the compliments and advice everyone

I will probably list it locally first & see if I can move it. If anyone might be interested PM me, Thanks again everyone.....

Oh yeah I am getting another boat, it is between a Champ and a brand I don't care to mention in here right now.

Johnthan!!!!!!! Take it from your old neighbor,you won't be satisfied until you seat yourself down in another Champ. Go and check our local dealer, I bet you will be impressed with the new Champs. My second one and, (that darn ride).

Very sharp boat. Unlike CM, I am a fan of blue and of green boats. My last 2 have been silver and green. I'm really wanting yellow one next time.
