5. *Because of a past well earned reputation, Bayliner resale values suffer.
Although the low quality structural and mechanical issues they once had are
a thing of the past that reputation remains with the
brand............perception is reality even today. *You will take a hit on
resale on both boats because of this, especially considering that the 2003
boat is overpriced.

The seller and I are basing the price on NADA. Is that not a good
resource to determine price?

That's one and a commonly accepted value. There are others including
a couple of industry only publications.

The real question is what the market is in your area. It's like
anything else in a slow sales market - it's what somebody is willing
to take, not necessarily the asking price. NADA is a national average
despite all the zip code nonsense.

If I had to guess, I say offer $7.5K and see what happens. You can
always go up. :)
