Your local paper.

I've had great luck with flipsell and wakeboarder.com classifieds.

I have tried the local paper and am currently trying e-bay. There is not a lot of local interest for a $35,000+ boat.

what kind of boat is it? Is it the LSV GG listed in your profile?

chip_boarder 04-26-2005 8:24 PM

The LSV GG listed in my profile was a 2003. I now have a 2004 LSV. This is the ebay website if you want to see pictures. <BR><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;item=4545331349&amp;ssP ageName=ADME:B:LC:MT:1" target="_blank">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;item=4545331349&amp;ssP ageName=ADME:B:LC:MT:1</a>

that is a badass boat, i was checkin it out, too far away though, im from texas. sweet boat though, that should sell no problem.

Not really surprised you are not getting much interest considering it's priced at the same price as a new Malibu V-ride. I know it has way more options, but the average Joe won't appreciate the options. Yellow is another hit at resale, it really narrows the buying field. Boats really depreciate in the first year, you will probably end up eating a bit on this one. It's a carbed motor right? another nick. I would be afraid that my offer would be insulting for such a nice boat (if I were still in the market). <BR> <BR>Sometimes a good old for sale sign on the window is a good way to pull top dollars for a nice unit like this.

Thanks for the advice Mlkeski. I wish I knew everything like you. I wish someone had told me not to buy a yellow boat, oh that was my wife.

Sorry if my post came off with an arrogant tone... I've been around tournament boats all my life but I definately don't know everything. <BR> <BR>I really like yellow, I used to have a bright yellow 63 Chevy truck. My wife would not even let me look at a few nice used yellow boats before I bought mine. I kind of just gave in and got a run of the mill color. Yellow and Red boats look awesome on the water. It's just too much for people like my wife. Now my boat is white with a blue stripe like half of the runabouts on any lake. <BR>

I'd have to agree your buy-it-now price is a little high <BR> <BR>My boss has that exact same boat you're selling, and paid less NEW. You may get lucky, but don't be disappointed if not. High 20's or low 30's is more realistic.
