I have a really nice 1997 Cobra 190 with a 1996 Johnson limited edition 150 hp motor, the boat is dual console, it comes with a 1997 trailer all new tires an new cover, trolling motor, one fish finder, and man will it run. We have to sale it because my husband had back surgery this spring and will not be the same again, he had to have a disc removed and 2 titanium rods but in. I appreciate any help I can get with this.
Thanks
I believe this to be a bit under powered, but if everything works and is in good shape with minor wear and tear my guess would be around $9,000.00. It all depends on what state it is sold in.
Thank Dwayne, but I went home and checked it has a 200 HP on it. And last time we had it out there were 3 of us in it total of about 700lbs people wise plus all our gear, and I made him shut it down at a little over 70 mph., probably be sold in Arkansas or Texas we are on the border.
Michele....any pics? What electronics are on the boat? What trolling motor (thrust)? Does the boat have a jackplate? If so, what size? (manual or Hydraulic)? Single axle trailer I presume? Spare wheel & tire? Folding tongue? Everything work on the boat? i.e., pumps, aerators, on board charger (2 or 3 bank)?
I thought I would be on Easy Street by now but somehow I missed the off ramp!
all electronics work, all the tires on the trailer are new and it has a spare but it is not new. The cover is new. I think the jack plate it manual, I will have to check, I know the prop is the 5 prop stainless steel that comes with the cobra's. This boat is so sweet, I hate to give it up. I wil also have to check the trolling motor when I get home. What does 2 or 3 bank mean? No folding Tongue, but it is a cobra trailer.
I have pics but don't know how to post them.

Michele...Send the pics to me and I will post them for you. Send to: lnickelswi@centurytel.net Also, I sent you an IM with a few more questions about the boat. If you didn't get them that will be because you have your pop-up blocker turned on. Go to BassBoatCentral and turn it off, don't worry, the BBC has its own pop-up blocker (just turn it back on before you exit the BBC). After I get the answers to the questions I asked in the Instant Message (IM) I will be able to give you a fairly accurate retail selling price.

I have to tell you We love the moutain Home area. We have an Uncle that manages the boat dock at the Bull Shoals state park, love to go there. Missed out this summer because of my Husbands back surgery
Michele...Got the pics. Will have them up shortly!
I'll give you two prices, one with hydraulic steering and one with twin cable. Keep in mind that boat values differ in various parts of the Country. Also, the selling price of a boat can be adversly affected if it has had major repaired damage. This is just a guideline...the best selling price is what someone will pay for it. Also, this isn't the best time of the year to sell a boat.
Here ya go:
With hydraulic steering: (Low) = $9125, (High) = $10, 275 (Ave) = $9700
Without hydraulic steering: (Low) = $8720, (High) = $9870 (Ave) =$9295

Larry it also has a new red boat cover,there is no damage whatsoever, the boat is in great shape, we are in Hope, AR If we cannot sell it now because of the time of the year we can always wait until Spring. Thanks so much for all your help. You have been GREAT!!!Merry Christmas to you and yours.
I have sold my last 3 boats this time of year and never had a problem. Just sold my Champion on Craigs List and bought a Cobra again. I think its a good time to sell because there is not a lot of boats for sale in the paper this time of year, in the spring and summer the paper is full of boats. I had 2 buyers lined up to buy my Champion and got a lot of calls after I sold it. Sold it in 3 days and got my asking price. My thinking is not a lot to choose from in the winter, so if you have a well taken care of boat it will sell easy.Try Craigs List its free. Try listing it in Dallas Ft Worth. Good Luck
Have you sold your Cobra yet? I seen the pictures, is that the boat? Have been looking for a nice Cobra for a while. If you haven't sold, please contact me at
amxtom2@aol.com with further information.
