Re: Whats my rig worth?

Well that answer was probably the most accurate answer your going to get, you best course of action would be to look around and see what a set up like you have, has been selling for, of course during the winter the prices are going to be quite a bit lower than they would during the season, but the best answer is what someone is willing to pay for it, and that can vary quite a bit from one person to another.. And remember it is always worth more to you, than it is to anyone else, you have memories, they have to take a chance...

The first answer is correct...I would not give you $100 for that rig. but someone else may be willing to go $800, another person who had one like that when they were young and would like to buy it may be willing to go $1500...IMO NADA guides are worthless for any boat beyond 10 years old.

I would bet that most of us on this site, have way more into our boats than we could ever expect to get out of them!

:D

Most of us buy low, and then spend way to much bringing them back to life!

:eek:

I agree with MTboatguy. I have a 61 Crestliner with a few slight modifications and I've got over $5000 in it. Bought it 14 yrs ago for $750, and stupidly turned down $3000 for it. If that's it pictured, probably about $500 in this economy, but on a good day $1000, and a poor day $100.
