Pretty clean looking SN for being 30 years old. If the 35 HP being a good runner then it all depends on the market where you're located if the price is fair or not. It would be priced pretty much on the high end here where I'm at, since the market is heavy with 14'ers.

I picked up this Girl for 1850 he threw in some small extras. The boat is very clean and in pretty good shape. runs real well so to me that was worth a extra few hundred bucks. the welded boats I was looking at where going to cost more once I customized them. I just ordered a trolling plate to get me out there until I can afford a nice bow mount motor. it may be all i need anyways as I will be dragging big minnows for holdovers and only fishing for planters when my kids are out with me

not sure why they loaded sideways. I had to make them smaller to fit

 

[Watermann]

Sideways or not, see's a fine looking SN you got there! You should be able to scoot across the water pretty good too with that 35 horse.

Just found this thread and love seeing all of the Sea Nymphs out there. I was wondering if anyone may be able to help me with kind of an estimate of what my CC191 Striper may be worth. I have put a lot of time and $ into this guy over the last couple years and have been going back and forth on selling her.

​

 

[Watermann]

Very nice SN! Why would you want to sell her off for someone to just wonder if they're taking care of her?

 

[Daniel76]

oh boy a thread with other sea nymph owners ----is it really an active thread?

 

[Daniel76]

Waterman --- I found it!

 

[Watermann]

Yeah a few of us are always snooping around the SN forum. So lets see your tin!

Hi! I am picking this 12 ft Sea Nymph and trailer up tomorrow for my 13 year old son, his first project boat.Paying 600.00 seems like it is in good condition. I have a Stealth 300 trolling motor and he is going to sell me a new marine battery for 25.00.
I was wondering what we need to look into for accessories and if you have any comments on this particular boat?
We live in South Florida and will be using it in the bay.
The guy painted the bottom with a bed liner black paint

:welcome: aboard Laurie!

Those SN's are good little tin boats. :thumb:

Looks like it's missing the end bow cap, it should be replaced. Check the wood transom to make sure it's not rotten or badly weathered, if so it needs replaced.

where do I find replacement parts for this ie..bow cap? Thanks! Have you ever heard of painting truck bed liner paint on the bottom in place of Marine paint?

 

[Watermann]

Parts for them isn't something you buy in a store although looking around on Ebay people put those type of parts up, maybe not specific to SN but any would work if the same size. Normally they're a cast aluminum piece in a V shape that helps tie the to bow pieces together.

Yeah bed liner I've seen it, there's been some trouble with that stuff being used in boats but the guys still want to spray it all over even against better advice.

OK, Read the posting and picture rules, anyhow I have been lurking here for awhile. I sold my Bass boat and bought a '94 SN 161FS. I have replaced the deck and flooring and added improvements to make it more fishable. Just about done. New Minn-Kota 52# trolling mtr. 1 graph from bass boat one new DI Lowrance, added back deck and extended front deck, added lure holders and rod holders, tape player out of my truck, LED tail lights, Now I need to look for a 70hp to replace the 50. It runs about 26-27 mph, hard when you're used to doing 75.

Welcome to iboats, and sorry for the difficulty.... You were at least partially successful ^^^.

The pix were probably too large for the forum software to upload. Try one of the methods for pix posting listed here:

Post a topic over in the Boat Restoration, Building, and Hull Repair, and post before, during and after pix of your new to you SeaNymph and what you've done to make it yours.

Went over there, didn't see any Sea Nymph thread.
