How did I do?

[chris16371]

Just bought the 2014 Xpress Xplorer XP180 Tunnel Jet with a 2014 Yamaha 90/65 and a 2014 Back Track Trailer that I was asking about in another thread for $16,000.00. Also has a fitted cover that can been used while trailering. It is like new with 9.7 hours on both boat and motor with the trailer having only 50 miles, I believe the guy told me he only had it out twice and he bought it brand new in 2014. I thought I landed a pretty good deal, just wondering what everyone else thinks.

You paid too much.

You paid too much.

Oh? Original owner paid $25,500 4 years ago, has original sales slip. Nada book value was $20,000 so $4000 off for a practically brand new boat. Insurance agreed value was $20,000 and if anything happens to boat they pay out $20,000 whether it happens tomorrow or in 4 years when it's worth less.

Oh well, I'm happy.

That's the important thing. My point was does it really matter what we think.

You got a great deal!!! You basically got a new boat that has sat for 4 years. You saved thousands. Looks like both a great duck hunting and fishing boat. Depending on what and where you plan to use it you done good. Enjoy it it’s a great boat. My only suggestion is if you use it mostly for fishing upgrade the fish finder/gps and get one with a bigger screen. Great looking boat.

9k off a barely broke in boat, nothing to cry about there.

I wish I had a jet like that,, have 2 rivers near me that no one ever fishes cause the are too skinny.

Congrats on the new boat.

when I purchased my boat I had to go easy on the throttle for the first 15 hours, my point being the motor is not even broken in yet.... and your horse shoe is upside down.. all your luck is going to spill out.

Have fun

Looks fun! With all that camouflage, you'll be able to sneak up on anything!
