How much should I pay?
 

The SeaCraft I am looking at is either a 68 or 69 hull. The current owner has removed everything except the floor. He has started some of the minor fiberglass work but it still need a lot of work to bring it up to standard. The trailer is brand new. Has only seen the water once. The motor is a 1990 Merc 200 that was running when the boat was being used.

I was thinking in today's market $1200 tops. Am I completely off?

What is the size? 27’ – 18’

If the trailer is new that’s worth $1,500 for a single and a triple axel is worth 4-5 grand.

You're right on. If the trailer has only seen the water once, for negotiating purposes, it ain't brand new anymore. If it's been in salt water, you can surely find the beginning of corrosion somewhere to point out. I can buy a NEW single axle 19'-21' 3200 lb. capacity galvanized Performance trailer for about $1300, so depreciate by 25%. The motor is worth about $375, statistically, and the hull requires more $$ than will be the book price when you're done. (We know the "Book" is screwy when it comes to SC) :D

So yeah, $1200 sounds right as a ballpark figure.

I am sorry about the fuzzy details. It is a 20ft center console. I do have a 140 4stroke suzuki that I would like to hang on the back, so I am not too concerned about the motor.

If it helps any...i bought my "Project Hull" for only $750 w/o trailer and w/o a motor... so If it were me i would say $1200 sounds fair, not having seen the boat.

Re: How much should I pay?
 

The motor is probably worth close $1200 . . . assuming you have 120 - 125 psi in all 6 cylinders.

Value is in the minds of the beholder. One persons junk is another’s treasure. For me if you got it for $1,200 you stole it.
I treasure SeaCrafts and think this one is worth $2,000 to poss $3,000. A lot of the de construction work is done.
