I have a 23' boat on a double-axle Shoreline trailer, circa 1990. My friend proposes to purchase a one-half interest in my boat and trailer. I can refer to blue books to get an idea of the fair value of the boat, but I have no idea what the fair value of the trailer is. Can anyone suggest where I might look for that kind of info?

(The trailer is in good shape. It has less than 200 miles on it, since neither the boat nor the trailer has ever left the marina the entire time I have had them. When I'm not using them, they have always been stored in a dry garage.)

Sorry if my question is addressed in another thread. I didn't see one.

Usually the price of the trailer is included with the price of a trailerable boat.

Ayuh,... That's Usually the begining of the end of a great friendship,...
But anyways,...
Figure about a Grand or less for the wagon...

I agree with that. My family was involved in a partnership on a boat years ago. The friendship survived but was never the same.
