What would be a decent price for this boat?

2005 Nitro 700 dual console, 90 hp mercury elpto, custom Nitro cover, Nitro trailer, one owner. Aerated livewell, baitwell, hummingbird GPS combo fishfinder. 55 lb thrust trolling motor, 2 deep cycle batteries. Nitro pedestal seats. Only 50 hrs on boat/motor. Mint condition. What do you think a fair price would be?

This is somewhat dangerous to answer without seeing the boat...

US prices are currently depressed, approx $14K USD for a similiar package.
Ballpark $15K-$17K CDN, but with such low hours (wow-50hrs!!), you may get $18K.

Unless the boat is maxed out in horsepower.....it's worthless.

Onto the boating section for useless scrutiny. :D

Thank you!

You're kidding right? :?

There was an '04 Nitro 700 with an '05 90 Merc engine that was listed on Kijiji for $11,250 less than a couple weeks ago.

A quick Google search will show you many under $10,000 in the US, so I wouldn't pay any more than $12,500 for the one mentioned at the top of this thread.

This is pretty much the smallest bass boat you can get....they don't hold their value like the big 21 footers do.

To further add to my reply....here's another one for sale for $13,000 OBO. It's an '04 Nitro 750 with an '04 125hp Merc

The only issue with those seemingly cheap boats that were for sale is that alot of times they are a scam. I know for a fact the one for $11,500 was. One of those "the boat is currently stored in a warehouse and if you send me $1000 up front we can have it shipped directly to you and if you are not totally satisfied, you will be refunded. Can't believe there might actually be people that fall for that crap! Can't speak for the $13,000 one though. If it is legit, it sounds like a smokin' deal!

No it wasn't. It was for sale by a dealer. His name is Chris and he posted his phone number and address. He has other boats for sale also.

It must have been a different boat/motor because the one I am talking about did not have a phone number and a co-worker of mine emailed about it. The response he got was one of those scam things... It was listed on the auto-trader online in Toronto for I think it was $11,000. Thought it must have been the same boat but I guess it wasn't.

Seems like you have already done your homework and know within 2K what a "fair" price is IMO
