Re: Mine? Larson 150

Hi,

I am on a different continent so this would probably not be much help to you. I thought I would post a reply since no one else has.

I just bought a 1999 Larson 166 Flyer - 15foot 11 inches with a 1998 110 HP Evinrude outboard and trailer in Southwest Minnesota, USA. I had been shopping around quite a bit and I thought that I got it at a very good price of $3,500 (American Dollars). I have seen others that are much like it advertised for over twice as much.

The boat you are looking at is a nice looking boat and I would pay 5000 euro for it if it is as good as it looks in the photograph. I understand that 5000 euro converts to roughly $2,500 American dollars.

The one that you are considering is a 1992 and the one that I bought is a 1999. Assuming that the newer one would be worth a little more. It sort of looks like the value is close to the same for these used boats on both continents.

I would be curious about your gasoline or petrol prices. I just payed $3.25 per American gallon (3.79 Liters) for premium gasoline at the marina fuel dock today for the boat. Pump price for regular gasoline with alcohol for my car is $2.35 per gallon today.
