sorry if this is the wrong place to put this. but i was wondering how much is a decent price to sell my boat for?
when i bought it, it was terrible. but i cleaned everything big time and added a few things

The boat - 1975 Crestliner Muskie550 15.33'
I recovered all the dash and console areas with a "carbon fiber" vynil.
added a bilge pump
new tach
all new wiring
led strips on inside of boat
*needs new seats

The motor - 1971 Mercury 800 80 hp.
just redid the impeller and pump housings
new starter
new wiring
new plugs
2 props
compression is all above 120
* the motor could probably just use a good checkover by a mechanic.

$600 - $1200 depending on how it actually performs, AND if you can get anyone to come look at it.

I would be interested in the motor as a kicker, someone else would want the the trailer, the boat might be a liability, part it out.

$800-900 if the engine runs strong.
You'd be better off selling the spare prop rather than donating it with the boat.
