value $$ 96' V21
 

I have a 96' V21 that i`m thinking of selling. We burnt up a piston on our Merc 150 and dont want to rebuild a second time ( yes we managed this little feat twice ).
Any suggestions as to where to find a decent value ??
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Ok seanote, heres what I'll do, and I'm only doing this for you... I'll give you a hundred bucks for the boat. I know, I know... I'm very generous but I'm a giver. What can I say?!?! :)

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

you are the best ! just think of all the money you`ll save me on " for sale " signs !

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

See... thats what i mean... about me being a giver and all. ;D

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

Hey Seanote,

Try nadaguides.com click on Wellcraft, then the model. Be sure you find the outboard model V21.

It will give you a ball park for the hull. remember, add for trailer and accessories if included.

Good luck and keep us posted when you sell, I'm always looking.

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

I'm interested.

Seanote,
*What is the general condition of the hull? Are there any major issues with it? Pics would be great.




See if this works for you.

Seanote, Shicks beat me to it...NADA was gonna suggest, too...once you get your quote, print it so you can show it to potential buyers...and post it here...you've got EXACTLY what I've been wantin', unfortunately the timing ain't too good from this end...don't think you'll have any trouble movin' that boat...if I got it, I'd hang a 225 E-Tec on it so fast it'd be a BLUR!!! ;D ;D

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

Thanks fo the search help but the nada site offers a value but only with running motor ,any idea`s how to change the motor options ???
the default is a 200hp motor that i`ll usume is running , mine has a bad piston. I looked up the value of a 150 96 merc and it looks to be around $ 2800. Subtract that from the $ 8500 the NADA site suggests ( yes this is the low side ) for the overall package and i`m looking at $5300. That seem about right ??????
Please tell me no !!!!

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

sorry guys , for those who asked about the condition of the hull ,, very good. No i`m not blowing smoke. It`s very good. A few spider cracks but nothing more than cosmetic.

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

Pictures please.

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

$5300 sounds right on to me with no power. I have a '94 V21 and I paid $6500 with a running Yamaha 150 of the same year. I re-powered with a brand new Yamaha 150 2 stroke because the motor that was on the boat needed carbs cleaned plus I was really really wanting a brand new motor.

The PO had just awlgripped the outer hull, put on a new rub rail, raw water washdown, new transom hatches, new deck inspection plates (epoxied in), new yamaha controls, new yamaha oil tank, among other things. Oh yeah, did I mention he also let the brand new 2005 trailer go with it too?? He basically did all the work I was dreading ;D so I had to buy it. ;)

I had a '72 V20 (and still have :() I was working on and I felt I would be alot better off just selling it and buying the V21 and I'm so glad I did. Nothing against the '72, just a lot of time and money to get it like I wanted it.

Tell me this - if you sell this boat, are you gonna buy another boat? If so what size? If I were you I'd keep it and hang a new motor on it ;D

I'm sure everybody else on this board will agree with that!!! :D

Here's my V21:

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

Yeah, if you're stayin' in the ''boatin' bidniss'', repowerin' that hull would be a GREAT move...lots of new and improved outboards on the market since mid-90s... 8)...on the other hand, if you're gettin' out or movin' up, I think you're in the right ball-park w/your numbers...

Oh, and BR...I'm in LUST w/your boat... ;D...

RAP - check your PM dawg...you've got mail...

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

Seanote, why not replace the powerhead? If I bought your boat, that's what I would do. It's the cheapest way out and you can either sell the boat (for more money) in good working order or keep it. New outboards are expensive, and if you decide to sell her later with new power, you'll never get your money back.
Just my .02

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

Hey just buy BR's spare 150 Yamaha that's a good engine he has laying around.

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

There`s two of us that own her together and both decided we`d like to move up in size. Stumbled onto a 2002 24' walkaround that fell into the area of " must sell " which translated into " we must buy ". I just cant afford to keep both. The V has been great but i`m looking forward to having a little more room and staying a little drier on those cold days.

Pictures of little miss SeaNote are on the way.
We`ve had her since 2001 and just noticed that we never really took pictures. I keep her on LBI New Jersey and have to make my way down there to snap a few more close-up`s.

Re: value $$ 96' V21

NICE BOAT SEA NOTE!

Listen man, if you can't sell it I'll take it and use if for parts :D I already got my eye on those bow rail mounted rod holders ;)

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

...and that nice cover you have for it.

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

Seanote, is that a 1999 picture or more current?

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

Great lookin' boat...too bad about OB probs... :P...

Wish I could... ;)...

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

so what are you going to do?? stop fishing? Put a dam motor on it and fish!!

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

He has a larger boat already MJ ???

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

yeah BR i`ll keep ya in mind when i cant sell and have to start taking pieces of her to flea markets ! :P
the pictures were taken the day we bought it in 2001 not sure whats up with the 1999 date deal but i`ll be getting new ones this weekend. Have to take the shrink wrap off and snap away.
We`d really like to step up to something a bit bigger but i`m not going to throw her away for the sake of 2 extra feet and staying a little dryer. Well .... maybe staying drier would seal the deal.
Pictures inside and out will be up monday,,, even if that damn site kills me.
Hey just think BR ,,, then ya can take whatever ya want.

Re: value $$ 96' V21
 

Mj --- not fishing is not an option. Gotta fish !
Jersey does make it tuff but gotta fish !
