Re: Selling a Boat?
Thanks for the reply guys. <br /><br />We have lowered the price significantly since we started posting. The blue book is around 12,500, so we started at 11,000. We have it down to 9,000 now. It's loaded with options, so I think at that price, it's a steal. <br /><br />Some of the people who have come and viewed it have asked us about the name, and the history. It's a Legacy, but it was made by SeaFox, which are decent boats. <br /><br />We're located in Key West, so this is a huge boating community, but stuff doesn't sell so well here. And we're far away from, say Miami, that people up there don't want to drive the 3 or so hours to look at it. And we don't have a vehicle that can tow the car, so it's not like we can go and meet someone (we keep it on a rack at a marina). <br /><br />We've tried eBay... twice. People don't want to pay more than $6,000 for it, which is really low-balling us, if you ask me. And no one came in person to check it out in that time - which makes me nervous. We described every nook and cranny, but so many people on eBay expect to pay for a Chevy and get a Cadilliac. And I've talked with a lot of sellers that have attempted to sell a boat on there, and the high bidder either blows them off, or doesn't come through in the end, because of that reason. <br /><br />I'm just getting ansy because we found a sailboat in Miami we really want, but we have to get rid of this boat first.
