maybe trading for a boat

[quad59]

I will post pictures later, but for now what do you guys think a 1987 17' delta v-hull,fiberglass,open bow, with a 2 stroke 115 hp outboard. Same yr engine, seems to be in good condition. Has a decent trailer nothing major on it, boat seems to run well. Whats it worth.

I looking to trade a 2000 yz 250 and a 2002 yz 85 for an open bow ski or fish and ski boat. Both bikes are mechanically tight,run great, and have clear titles.

'87 17' bowrider around here would probably be worth $2-3k. If it's in exceptional condition possibly close to $4k. Your main concern is rot. You need to make sure the deck and transom are solid. If the deck has soft spots usually the stringers below are shot as well. Replacing any of these wood components is a major project. I wouldn't pay more that $1-1.5k if it needed work (and that assumes a running motor). What brand of motor is it?
