Just curious - for those of you who have sold a used boat (not a trade in on a new one) - how did you come to a fair sale price?  Is there a Blue Book for Boats?  I tried looking up my 1996 Lund - 1700 Pro Angler Deluxe on the internet to see what they are going for around the country, but boats 12 years old are not out there - so I have nothing to compare to.  I bought it for $14,000  way back then, and I suspect it's probably worth... what 2-4 thousand?  But how would I know?  What would you do, or where would you go to get some good advice on what a boat is worth? 

She's been a great boat - and I want her to bless some one else as much as she has blessed me - so I want to have a fair price that makes it a win-win situation for me and the buyer.  If I decide to get rid of her (and I'm not sure yet) I'm certainly not interested in making a lot of money - just to be fair.  But determining what something is worth is not my cup of tea!  Help... suggestions?

I sure hope that you are not giving up on floating?  Are you considering another boat?

If you are looking to buy, make sure he doesn't post the ad

I'm interested in more details for sure, but I'm not sure if my little CR-V could tow it (it's hard to find loaded weight information on boats).  I'd also have to sneak it past the wife as a "family" boat that can tow tubes and other foolishness.
