Wow. Prices are much cheaper out here. My friend got a 2008 sx230 non ho for 18k earlier this year (fresh water only and tower). My 2004 ar230 (fresh water only) was 14k (plus 2k to get the heads done after my second trip, but that's rare and not reflected in the price). Mine has new upholstery too.

Non ho is a deal breaker for most that want power..... brand new and rebuilt by riva with the shafts.....

Find me a 2005 with less than 210 hours on it......doubt it will happen ;) but thanks for the bump
 
bump for a upcoming halloween treat for someone lucky :)
 
@chess I highly recommend ebay for trying to sell a boat. I sold my 2011 SX240 last year on there after months of trying other avenues. I know @Andy S just sold his boat on there as well not sure about his overall experience but it sold in a week and he had it listed for a few months other places as well. I recommend posting it on there as a classified add for a week first to get some interest and watchers then convert it to a seven day auction. I think you will be surprised and the boat will be sold in two weeks. If you wait till the spring you would likely get a higher price then now but it should probably still sell now especially if the price is right.


@chess I think your original craigslist add linked in the first post has expired

@robert843 I think i tired to put it on ebay, but gave me a bunch of crap....

I hate the thoughts of paying them a 3% finders fee which I absolutely hate ya know.....

I guess ill have to re-activate it :)

I think there is a cap on the fee so it’s not 3% on a large sale but it’s worth as there are no tire kickers it’s a sold done deal as long as you describe it accurately I don’t think I will ever sell a boat or car another way again.
 
@chess like @robert843 mentioned I sold my Triton on eBay. I'm not sure what the actual capped fee is but my fees for selling was $167 for a boat sale price in the low $30k.

With the experience I had selling I would definitely do it again.
 
@Andy S That is not a bad price at all.....

I dont blame you at all !! Hopefully it gets some looks :)
