good price?

looking at a 94 grady white adventure with a 2004 Suzuki DF225 4 stroke engine- new electronics with a shorelander trailer for 20.000.
First time boat buyer? Is this a good price?

Fairly high for a boat of that age. Good power is important but not worth that much. I'd think low to mid teens more like it...

I agree 17,000 at best .

listen,with the market the way it is right now,you're dropping 20k on a boat that's 15yrs old ???

basically,you're buying an engine...

run,run real fast,and don't look back...

$17k ?? what ??? no way...keep looking...

Im with JAWZ, you'd be crazy to pay that much in this market..... I bought a waverunner last week , the guy wouldn't budge off 1200.00, emailed me a week later and i bought it cash for 450.00....People need to dump this stuff, i'd offer the guy 12,500.
