Any comments on this fishing boat? Especially the price? It seems hard to find decent blue book used boat values like cars online. Boat looks clean and decent from the pictures. I haven't found anything in this price range that has a console that has been as decent as this one. I lost my boat in the divorce and want to get back into something cheap for the time being. Any comments would be great.

It's a decent boat. Boats are hard to sell, I bet you could get it for $4500. Looks in real nice shape.

Yeah I agree looks in great shape for its age. Its got the features I want. In my budget. Just not familiar with the early 2000's 4 stroke mercs or Sylvans.

Did some research for you Brad. They stopped making that particular Sylvan model in 1991. With that info and figuring the motor and trailer as 2001 models this is what I found on NADA. Average retail is $3050 and low retail is $2695. The boat looks super clean if those are pictures of it's current condition. I can not believe the trailer has no rust for the age.

You mean 2001? This one is a 2001. The outboard is a 1999 he said.

The price of the first one seems awfully high, for something 16 years old. Was probably in the $10,000 range new. We had a 16' alumacraft lunker w/ a 50 merc 2-stroke, 2000, and it was about $10,000 new. Sold it for $5,000 in 2010.

I saw that Brad. The last reported model year of the Sea Monster in Nada is 1991. I also searched more and got the same info. Maybe a leftover model that got titled as 2001.

Gotcha. Yeah I can't find much out there.
We can say a boat isn't worth it but I'm looking for the following features.
16-17' Console 4 stroke motor Good shape. I don't want something I need to do anything to. Or do very little too. That one for $6500 is about my current max price range.
I haven't found many that fit this. But maybe I'm looking in the wrong spots.

You know what boat stands for, right?
Break Out Another Thousand.
I'd only really consider the boat/motor/trailer. All accessories are nice, but chances are they'll be replaced sooner than later.

Alright for now I'm gonna pass on the first one and look at the second one tonight. The guy claims there is someone looking at it right now.

Thanks. Yeah $7500 is getting too rich but maybe I could get him down to 6500. The smoker craft looks better to me. Even if it is 3 years older. I like the dual livewells.
