Ok im going to sound green but I have to ask this.
We are moving out of state and I decided to sell and buy something when I get settled. That said I need to sell my current boat. (2002 Four Winns fish and ski)
The boat is ready for the season and is 100% drop in and go. I'm including a lot of other stuff as well and it will be below NADA guide pricing for this area.
I never sold a boat before so I was wondering what the traditional personal sale process is like. I know only want a bank check and since I have a lean, there would be a waiting period before they could take it and register it.
I can still sell via consignment in a local marine shop where they manage the survey, water trial, inquiry's etc. That is $230 for the survey and listing plus 15% of the price. Very tempting but that's a loss of $1500 for a $10,000 boat.
