21' Pontoon (party barge) was free with the house. Pretty common for lake homes in MN to come with the dock and pontoon if they are moving off the lake. Then again im sure im paying for it in the mortgage somewhere :)

1990 2100SR Maxum 4.3 Alpha 1. My uncle bought it brand new in 1991 and sold it to me last year for $3000. It is in unbelievable condition. He was a major perfectionist so it was cleaned after each use. I thank him for it all the time.

i picked the smallest category, but really it was free. sort of an inheritance. but i think it would probably still fall in that category. probably around 3000.

Re: How Much did your boat cost?

I purchased my boat in 2005 before I heard of iBoats. Now that I have been a member of iBoats and learned from the shade tree pros, I realize that I greatly over paid for my boat. I don't want to admit what I paid, but I can safely say it was way too much. Fortunately I got lucky and got a good boat. I could have just as easily over paid for a piece of junk. I still have the boat and it is paid for, so I have chalked it up as a lesson learned and I am enjoying my boat. The boat is a 1978 Glatron SSV-188 with a Johnson 140.

Bought my 1978 16' Starcraft SS, 50hp Merc outboard, and a Tee Nee tilting roller trailer for $300.00. The CMC Tilt Trim cost more than the initial purchase.

Have since updated to a rebuilt 85 hp Johnsom V-4 I bought for $150.00.

I haven't finished buying my boat. I keep on adding things on to it.

Re: How Much did your boat cost?

Won't let me vote either.
I got the boat for free, probably have $300 into it and might have that much into it over the winter re-doing the seat cushions.
