Guidance on where to sell a boat and waverunner quickly

Need to turn to the Outdoor Board for some advice. It is a long story, but I have been given about 2 weeks to sell a boat and jet ski for my sister. They are in lifts at her camp in False River. Haven't been run in a year or so. I am 90% the batteries are dead and the gas that is in them, although ethanol free, should be replaced.
Here is the info on them:
Boat - 2004 NauticStar 200 Sun Deck with a Yamaha 115. Worked fine last time I used it. Has a Bimini top. I know one of the running lights is broken. Needs some TLC and would be a fun entry boat for someone. Comes with a trailer. Also have a trolling motor that was on it but not now.
Waverunner - 2010Yamaha VX1100B-JB. Worked fine last time I used it. Battery needs to be replaced, and new gas and I think it would be good to go. This does not have a trailer.
Where do I list them? Have no clue how much for each? She has title in hand.
Thanks in advance.

I'll give you $350 for the pair! Final offer.

Drag them both to the Boat Yard in Marrero and they will buy them on the spot or sell them for you on consignment.

Facebook Marketplace will get lots of views. Pricing will determine if they sell.

Thanks!
Thanks!

I second the Boat Yard in Marerro. Ours sold in less than 3 weeks.

Davinci motors in Laplace is far superior to the Boat Yard.

I had my 2 jet skis and the trailer spoken for on FB Marketplace in less than 49 minutes.

That could be a problem

You’ll get a million messages, have a bunch of tire kickers, and have to deal with a high level of stupidity, but if you have time to manage through all of it, FB Marketplace is the fastest, easiest, and free-ist.

thanks for the responses. I will figure it out from here.

What I like about marketplace is I can look at profile pic(s) and make a shallow judgment call on if I want to meet this person IRL.
Face tat=no thank you

In 2019, I cleaned up my boat well (even Armor-alled the trailer tires) put it on the driveway on a nice sunny day and took about a half-dozen good pictures like these: 
Put it on Facebook Marketplace and my phone began blowing up immediately. Had the buyer later that same afternoon.
I probably could've asked a little more, but I figured getting what I paid for it 13 years earlier was a good price, and it was also in line with what the market was for a boat like that.
Had the same experience w/ Facebook Marketplace when we sold my daughter's car a year or so later.
Not having the same experience trying to sell 2 bottles of Tesla Tequila, though....
