Hello,
Seriously considering buying a boat here in texas to get ready for summer, but am not sure of the value of this boat. Its an '85 Wellcraft 190 American with a 140hp I/O mercury. Didnt these boats come with a 170hp motor? The guy says that the upholstery has been redone and the wood floor and carpet as well . The nada site says its only worth about $2000. Is this accurate for a boat like this? He is asking $5000 and says that he has about $7000 invested in it.
Is there anything I be careful of when buying a boat of this age? Thanks for any help, as I have 0 experience on boats.
