Yea, this site is a great way to learn what a boat's real value is.....
Depending on whether its a total restore, turn key or in between you can break it down like Dixon said. One thing I have noticed, the higher priced boats many times actually can be the better deal when you factor in the cost of a cheaper boat that needs replacement power, new transom, T-Top, ect.. Oh, and I almost forgot, the biggest mistake I see on here is when a guy decides to put too much weight on the back of a SC with a heavy new motor after spending major money on a restore.
