Best place to sell a boat
I have a 16'proMV Alumacraft(1980) with a 1994 75 hp Yamaha
for sell, the boat is too small for the family and I plan to buy
a bigger boat between now and next spring. I bought the motor new
in 1995 and used it alot for the first 4 years, we sold our lake
house and have only used it 2 or 3 times a year for the last 6 or 7 years. Don't actually know what it is worth or were would be the best forum to sell. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
RE: Best place to sell a boat
If your looking for forums to sell your boat, without paying a fee, I would suggest using this site, as well as other Bass Boat Boards.
I have sold 2 Demo boats in the last 2 years. One was sold from here on the Boats board, and the other on Bass Boat Central. Another good place in BFHP.

If you are looking to pay for advertising, I would suggest [url]www.boattraderonline.com[/url] , there you can get it listed in the boat trader that arrives statewide every Friday, and list it online to viewers nationwide.
Typically, a boat like yours is easier to sell, so you probably want to post it here on the boats board, as well as some of the other discussion boards that allow it, or have a designated place for Boats For Sale.
Hope this helps.

Thanks Don, I advertised in the CJ for a week and had a thousand
calls but only two lookers. I will take your advice. Thanks, again.

I've used the boattrader to sell a couple of boats with good success.

How much are you asking for it? Post it on the boat discussion board and you should sell it. I'm still looking for a hunting boat if the price is right.
RE: Best place to sell a boat
I'm asking $2800.00. Everything works on the boat, it has a foot controlled Motor Glide trolling motor,livewell,and auto bilge which it needs because she leaks a little. I have new tires and rims on the trailer and a new winch. The motor has always ran great. Its a C75 Yamaha with power tilt and trim, I bought it new in the box in 95.
RE: Best place to sell a boat
Is the asking price too high? I want to get $2500.00 out of it,
I was told the motor should be worth at least $1800.00. The boat needs carpet and the trailer could use some paint,but I have always kept it covered and the boat is ready to fish. ANY OFFERS?
