What's she worth?

Honey Hole · #1 03-01-2005, 11:14 AM

A sad time, but I'm going to sell "my girl"... a 1975 20'CC powered with a strong running 1989 Yamaha 175. I did a bunch of cosmetic work to her last year (interior carpet, refinishing the teak, re-doing the rub rail, new molding on the interior side of the "cap)... and she looks a lot better than when I bought her. I realize the engine really has little value in the mind of the buyer, but I know it's strong. So... the question is: What's a fair price? I'm thinking in the 8K range... is that low/high?

Thanks folks... I appreciate your input.

Honey Hole,

Is it a Fisherman or a Master Angler (you mention "....interior carpet,...new molding on the interior side of the cap...")? Do you have pictures that you can post, and what is the hull ID number?

The Hull number is SECF00611275; and to tell the truth, I'm not sure if it's a Master Angler or Fisherman. This is the only pic I have right now, but will take/post more if needed. Miles Offshore has seen the boat, and may be able to add some input.

well... the pic posting didn't work... any tips?
EDIT: okay, just added a "space"... the link should work.

That's an MA you have.

I sold my 78 MA for 9500.00 without a motor,
electronics or trailer. I would start at 9900,
your timing is perfect.

She looks like a nice boat. I think $9,500 would be a "home run". IMHO, I feel a "fair" value would be more like $7,500. But - the more the better...

It's hard to say, but I think you are in the ballpark. FWIW, I bought mine for $13,500, but that came with a new 130 Honda, new trim tabs, electronics, new trailer and 25" transom. Seafari sold his for good $$, but it had been mostly redone and he's in LI, where prices are higher. It really depends on it's condition and someone that wants that style boat.

Good luck with it.

I appreciate the replies guys... I'll let you know how it goes.

"The Hull number is SECF00611275; and to tell the truth, I'm not sure if it's a Master Angler or Fisherman."

That hull sure looks like a MA to me, but the hull ID clearly says it is a Fisherman. Just curious, but does anyone know what happened here?
