is Nada the standard to sell ur boat by?

Tell us what type your selling.

You can base your price off of NADA, but you need to look up ads for the same boat and see what they are selling for. Do a search within 250 miles for ads. Now if it is a bigger boat like an offshore boat, do your search for as far as 1,000 miles. People are willing to travel for used high price boats. Not so for smaller boats.

The market for selling boats kind of sucks unless it is a smaller boat. Value wise, whatever the market will bring is what the value is for a boat.

IMO - the NADA will give you a starting point, but like said above, you need to research similair boats and what they are selling for in your area. Remember, if a boat is still listed for sale at XYZ price, it hasnt sold yet for that price and might not at all.

Good advice on researching other boats. Make sure they have comparable features, comparable hours on motor, etc... The driving force in how much most buyers can pay depends on how much the bank will loan for your boat, since most finance things now. I would call the bank and see what they would loan on it. They are prob going off NADA also though. Atleast the few Ive bought/sold through a bank did.
