Questions about selling a boat

Post by Jdavismmu »

Hi everyone-not sure if this is the correct platform to ask this question, but since I have not listed my boat yet, I didn't want to put it in the fishing classified section. I am preparing to sell my 2008 Starcraft Superfisherman 180. It is a really solid boat, but it has a couple of minor issues. My question: How much should I account for live well plumbing that will need to be replaced (an intake cracked over the winter), and a gas gauge that doesn't seem to be working? I am going to research what I should be putting the boat up for sale for, but want to account for those two issues when I come up with a price. If anyone has any thoughts I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

To me the 2 items you
Listed may take 1k total off value and being told proactively about them sets a good sale tone. I have no idea what your boat is worth. Depending on motor and equipment it could be worth 6k 15k. hard to say. You can post it In classified for sale here anytime. Even with a best offer price.


Good
Luck!
