Its time to let the Frontier go to a new home but its been years since ive sold a boat and was wondering if Louisiana Sportsman Classifies is still popular now that its a paid subscription?

I think FB marketplace kind of shut down La sportsman. I haven't been to their site since they went subscription.

What’s the boat look like? Post some pics so we can further assess the sale.

If it’s in good condition it should get swooped up pretty quick.

Where ever you post get ready for scammers. Full cash offer will be followed by asking for a Boat Fax for $50.
Don’t list your ph #, delete ad after sale or you’ll get request 5 yrs later like I did.

You can also try Bayoushooter. It's primarily for guns, but a lot of south Louisiana people are on there and sell all kinds of stuff.

Nice boat. I’m a couple years away from trading my skiff in for a Frontier or BJ224. Great boat for the LA marsh

Thehulltruth is a decent site to list it for sale. Sold our last bay boat there in under a week.

Try 2coolfishing as well, its based out of TX. LASM is a bunch of auction junk now.

I’ve had a pristine Yamaha 25 tiller, motor only, listed on there for a couple months with zero bites. Seeing this thread is a good reminder for me to cut off the subscription before it renews.

Listing it on LS is a waste of time.

It is but they also require a paid membership. Its not the end of the world but it seems to drive away traffic when marketplace is free

I posted a boat in FB marketplace and had 25+ messages within the first 2 hours before u had to turn it off. Had a guy Venmo me a deposit and come pick it up the next day.

Marketplace is by far your best bet to sell almost anything. If it doesn’t sell quickly, it’s overpriced.

I’ve had a few messages on marketplace but not as much as I’ve had in the past on items which is why I was looking for other places

Gas prices may have potential boat buyers locked up right now.

That I4 Yamaha gets 3.25 mpg at 40mph. This is the boat they need with these gas prices

Your boat is one of the best values in a 21’ bayboat.
Did you list the year?
Those sport trail trailers make me moist, wish you could still buy direct.
