It's definitely a great market if you have a nice used rig. We've flipped some champions and it's crazy what they'll bring. You can rig one out and get 40k for an early model 210, 221, 223. But....boats haven't changed much in 15 or so years. Why spend 70k+ when you can get just as much boat for 35-40k when rigged out correctly.
my 95 202 would have to start at 25k just to get my attention, everything is for sale, some stuff just costs more.
buy a used boat and outfit it the way you want and you are still in for some big bucks with what our accessories cost these days. not hard to put 10k just in electronics/tm any more.
Yup you know those 202's bring top dollar. We have a 202 hull we will rig out for 2021. It'll be a 25-30k boat

the market determines what the value is if you have it for sale for a couple of months in this market an it doesnt sell you have it priced too high. over 20 foot boats under 40 k is a great market now.

My 2004 SX190 Skeeter got new seat covers and carpeting 4 years ago, and last year got 2 H'bird Helix 10's and an Ultrex. Using Seafoam Marine in my gas and the Yamaha 2-stroke 150 runs great. So although I could afford any boat that I wanted, this old girl runs fine, keeps my arse out of the water, and I don't worry about putting the first ding in her.
The secret to being "wealthy" isn't how much money you can spend, but realizing how much... or little... you actually "need."

Because the lure of the Ranger fan boy stare you down never smile never laugh cause you’re a serious weekend angler who cashes $62 checks is to strong.
LOL 'stare you down' from underneath the flat bill....
