Re: '86 Four Winns Freedom 160. Yes or No?
NADA puts it at $2,215 for the boat and motor by themselves at the low retail price, meaning it needs work.
I have no problem doing the work the rest of the season and then I will have a boat for next season. It is not like I can't use my parent's Lund or pontoon whenever I want, but that is a bit of a drive to get there. I am still looking at other boats. I haven't been sold on this one yet, but the possibilities for it are enticing. There are some must haves, which includes swivel seats.

NADA shows average retail at $1,170 and that includes the motor and trailer. I don't think I would go as high as he is asking.

This one may be promising and I am assuming that he is asking $2500 not $25000.
I would go for the Blue Finn over the Star Craft any day. Blue Finn is more my style. Guess that is why I like this Four Winns, it is like they have the best of both worlds.
That boat is FAR LESS than a retail condition boat.

Given high boating season is now...do you want to go boating or resto? Seems like a resto would have been a good winter project. There are plenty of sea worthy, turn key older boats for sale in MN for small budgets. Between kids sports, working, rain days, grad parties, sick days, church, more kids sports, camps, and and on and on, our MN boating season is short enough that a full resto, during the season is a big committment.
