I'm looking at buying this boat. It has a 90hp evinrude. Here is pics of boat and spots i found that need to be fixed. The front of the boat came apart alittle when a stump hit it. Is it worth fixing up? What is it worth?

Interesting. Those stumps will hit you every time. :)

What is the asking price? I think it's a pile of work. IMO

The hull has no value so it's whatever the motor and trailer are worth. Does the motor run? A nice running 90 would be worth around $1k or so, maybe $500 for the trailer. I believe TX is a pretty strict state when it comes to paperwork so make sure everything is in order before you buy. The hull needs a complete teardown and rebuild but could be worthwhile project if you can get it cheap enough.

The motor runs good. What would be a good price to offer him?

You never mention an asking price, ezmobee gave you a good starting point for the items (trailer and OB).
What else are you looking for?

If the boat is any indication of how he/she cared for it, I would really go over that motor well before I offered any on my hard earned $$ for it. If it's got great compression, and runs well I'd start at $4-500. Hitting a stump is not all that boat has been exposed too either. Interior is trashed, not much worth stripping off that except the power plant.

Fizz, two of us have asked about the asking price, which you have ignored. If you want some help from us, can we get some help from you? And where are you, location does count. Thanks.
