Hello everyone

I’m am selling my 04 sx230 and don’t really know what it’s worth. It has a tower, pretty good shape, speakers, good trailer tires, garage kept, and no mechanical problems. Don’t know the miles but it wasn’t used much during the summers. Only problems with it is Speedo doesn’t work, small 2 inch tear in seat, and two small dock rashes.

Any ideas on a price range I should be looking at. Thanks

Are you the original owner?
if not how long have you owned it?
Did you do the regular maintenance? do you have any receipts or proof of service?

You need to take it to a PWC shop to have them read the ECU's to read how many hours and get a print out of it,

With no info supporting documentation I wouldn't give you more than $12k if the test ride was fine,
If you have supporting docs I might feel comfortable up to 15-16k,

good luck and keep us posted,

I am the second owner. I have owned the boat for about 10 years now. I did all the maintenance myself including oil changes and new spark plugs yearly. I also put new throttle cables on 2 years ago because the old ones were on the edge of seizing up. Of course with doing it all myself, I don't have any maintenance receipts besides me buying the oil, filters, and plugs.

I need to find a shop in Arkansas that can read the mileage for me.

Thanks for the help so far guys.
