no clue on age or hrs. zero issues, cranks everytime and runs like a champ. Looking for a ballpark figure i should be expecting to get.

Ask for 2k, expect 1500-1700. That is total guess.

ive looked up some fisher marines online "look worse than mine" selling from 2500-3500. Again thats their asking price, not saying sold it. Im just trying to see what the ob thinks i could get.

You should ask $50 for it.

I'll pay you $75.

Look at the hull identification number (HIN) on the back of the transom. The last 2 digits will be the year the boat was made.

Fine looking perch jerkin' rig. I wouldn't take less than 2000 if I were you. Old motor is what brings it down.

i love the boat, but looking to upgrade to an aluminum bass tracker or xpress.

as far as the MI, no clue. i live in mississippi and bought the boat from a guy in mississippi "for $900" about 8-9years ago. Replaced all the decals, carpet, seats and added the trolling motor and had a blast. But i think its time to upgrade

Fair enough... I'm a market-price kinda guy, but in this case, I might use the "well, I've got this much in it, and replaced seats, carpet, etc, so I think $xxxx is a fair price"


Of course, it comes down to the buyer's options in your area.

Hell, it says its a Fisher right on the side of it!

I don't see why you can't get at least$2500.00 for it. I'd ask 3 for sure.

I'd ask 3k for sure. If it does in fact run fine as you say and needs no work, electrical is fine, trolling motor works then I wouldn't sell for less than 2500, though it may take a while for someone to pay that. Definitely wouldn't take less than 2k.

ETA is it welded or riveted? I'm having a hard time seeing

yeah i was hoping to ask 3 for it. But i didnt know, i didnt want to look dumb. It seems like its worth that to me. Runs like a champ and doesnt leak a drop.

I'd start at 3k bud and work your way down. Get as much as you can. Prob wouldn't hurt to get the compression tested in it. Probably would help the buyer be alil quicker to jump on it.

If the hull is welded then without motor it's worth a good 1500-2k boat/trailer/trolling motor. IMO. Just for reference.

I think i see it riveted, hard to tell on my shitty screen. Either way, I stand by the ask 3, don't take less than 2500, based off of pics and what you say.
