boat value

Post by billb »

I have a 1979 f32
it has:
newer stringers
newer refrigerator
new toilet with mancerator
new couch
new curtains
new flooring
other original equipment
gen set
twin 360s
it is over all in good shape. I know I can't get near what I paid for it 14 years ago but I was wondering I could get out of it. if I decided to sell her.
thanks,
bill

A friend bought an '81 F32 with twin 360's with about 1400 hours for $12,500 a couple of years ago. It was in overall good condition for its age.

I would gander about the same money, $12k to $15k now unless it is in exceptional shape.

Prices seem to be all over the place some are almost given away others seem to get a high price . Some areas command more . A 70s boat will command less then a 80s . A guess 10-15k

The average retail price according to NADA is $12,510 ( http://www.nadaguides.com/Boats/1979/Tr ... 788/values ). That's pretty much in line with what others are saying.
