Hi guys. I'm pondering selling my boat and I'd appreciate some stabs at
its
value from whoever cares to guess. :-)

The boat is a 1989 Seaswirl 210 walk-around cuddy, and I'm the original
owner.

302 Ford Cobra OMC 200HP (runs strong) (2 barrel Holley carb)
Trim tabs
Navico fluxgate auto-pilot w/remote
Tow Master tandem aluminum trailer, w/disc brakes and salt water
washouts.
(boat has never been in sal****er, only Lakes Erie and Ontario)
Dual batteries with switch (both new)
3 Manual Big Jon Downriggers w/weights and releases
1 Manual Big Jon planer (dual) board mast w/boards

Boat has the reqiured sink, stove, porta-potty, bed, needed for the
second
home write-off stuff.

I might have missed a thing or two, like 8 trolling rods and such, but
that's it in a nutshell.

I looked at two websites that offer used boat prices, and had a hard time
finding the 210 walkaround. At any rate, any idea what I should ask for
it?
It's in nice shape. (drop curtains will eventually need repalced around
the
helm)

Thanks in advance.

Looks like prices are all over the board and it's worth whatever you
can sell it for. This link to a group of boats for sale suggests that
$15,000 would likely be too high, and anything less than $7-8k might be
too cheap.

There's no worse feeling than putting something up for sale and having
the phone erupt with callers frantic to come over and pay your full
asking price.
At least you're only dealing with a range of a few thousand from too
high to too low- a lot of people sit and puzzle over the same
predicament and have to agonize about hundreds of thousands.

All good points, Gould. That gives me a reference point for pricing, thanks
a bunch.

Happy Boating.
