HoneyB Posted October 19, 2019 Report Posted October 19, 2019 Are you selling or buying ? That boat sounds like it would command in the mid to upper teens. Not often do upgrades to wiring and such ad value to the boat. It’s just do things work when I push this button yes or no? Honestly the same goes for the tank. Sure it’s great to tell the seller it cost dollars but really it does not change the fact the boat is year model xxxx. The boat sounds nice for sure . It has a four stroke which is a real adder because some people will not buy a 2 stroke. If you look here and on the hull truth classifieds you will see about 90% of the boats have an update that says price reduced. If you are considering buying that boat just know if you pay for all the recent upgrades, three years from now the upgrades are not new anymore. If you are selling the boat remember it had wires and fuel tank in it already. Replacing broken or old parts does not make it a 2019 year model boat. Disclaimer..... others may say I’m full of crap and it’s worth 25 grand

If the buyer is asking $25K....reality will set in after it's on the market for 30-45 days with no bites..... In all seriousness, the value is in the eye of the beholder.....if it's a cream puff and in good shape....you may decide to pay more....if "that's" the skiff you want...but, not $25K out of the box.

FMB MEGALOPS Posted October 19, 2019 Report Posted October 19, 2019 The prior 2 post are spot on. IMO once you go under $20K on a Master Angler it's all about timing, 17' vs 18' & who shows up with cash. If I had to guess this is your boat and you're going to sell soon and in your mind your number is high...LOL. Do your research and you'll see that the 17's don't "Sell" for over $20K often. Most of them that are asking $25K + have been recently re-powered. Bottom line, how soon do you need to sell vs how much would you really take??? Ask $19,000 or offer $16,000. Good luck and you should post some pics and you'll get lots of IMO's........which is great real world feedback on here.
duncanc15 Posted October 20, 2019 Author Report Posted October 20, 2019 I currently own the boat. not going to sell it for another couple years. was just curious on how much it will be worth once done. its in the fiberglass shop right now waiting on the new tank to be delivered. after it will go back to the rigging shop to get all new electronics and wiring. ill post before and after pictures once its done so you guys can see the transformation.
HoneyB Posted October 21, 2019 Report Posted October 21, 2019 i Think it worth more right now or after the tank and floor is finished than in three years. Three years from now all that stuff is just stuff that has been Repaired or replaced over the live of the boat.

That's really cool you're getting that done on a legend of a boat. It's not about making a profit on these anymore. Buy it, make it your own, enjoy the opportunity to own a legend and when you're ready to move on you will almost always will be fine with what you can get out of them. Of course guys get very emotional when they put so much in these, but they are a depreciated item. They're very, very few boats that are 20 years old that can hold their value like the MA's! I look forward to seeing it.
