The NADA book lists this boat at $16K-19K (low to average retail price).

I've listed it below that because I NEED to get rid of it. AND, mine comes with a 10HP motor worth at least another $1K.

So, you're getting $17-20K worth of boat for $14K!!!

I also just bought the steering upgrade from Edson for $300 (this model was built with a push-pull cable system for the pedestal steering and there have been some problems with it - see other forum discussions. I got the replacement pull-pull system for better responsiveness and relaibility but haven't installed it yet. I can have it done or give you the name of a guy.

The boats is in great shape and has the rear quarter captain's chairs and cushions and covers and all of the usual stuff.

I also have a trailer for it which I can sell together or separately. I think the trailer is worth about $3K and I'll sell it for $2500.

I will take the best offers I get.

Boat and trailer are currently located in Austin, TX on Lake Travis (boat is in a slip).

Can anyone give me a clue how to sell one of these boats? I have to get rid of it. I thought I priced it very well. Yet, no bites.

Perhaps you could post a link with some pictures. You know the old saying, a picture is worth a thousand words.

My 250 sold here:

It's free, but donations afterwards are appreciated. He does a nice job. There is a system for keeping yours "on top" if you adjust the price periodically untill it sells.
