Guys, quick backstory
A buddy of mine bought a 2000 Four Winns a few years ago in parternship with another buddy of ours. Unfortunately that buddy died of cancer this past year....awful stuff. Well, his wife/widow would like my buddy to buy out the remaining share on this boat and he is trying to figure out what it might be worth. They paid about $10k for it 4 years ago.
So again, the boat is a 2000 Four Winns (17'-18') Open bow with a wake tower. It is powered by a brand new 4.3 and an SX Volvo leg. Its a very clean boat, not abused, includes a trailer and is now mechanically rebuilt over the last 2 years.
Being a 'northern' boat it has seen substantially less 'water and wave' time than the southern boats so that is probably reflected in the overall condition with respect to hull fade or upholstery wear etc. Unfortunately, that is also why it has a new 4.3 v-6....due to a cracked block LOL.
Regardless, he would like to give his buddies widow a reasonable price for that half but he isn't quite sure what it would be worth these days?
So....would anyone want to weigh in on what market or reasonable value on this boat would be?
Many Thanks
BP
