Man, the market is oversaturated with overpriced V-21's in NJ.

That's just the boat markey nowadays. Boats that would only fetch $2K 5 years ago are now fetching $5K in most places.

Really $10k??? Wow..

[lumberslinger178]

maybe if it had a newer motor ??????

Only asking $ 10,000 ! Wow, I bet the bidding war's are already in play.

Offers probably up to $ 40,000 - $ 50,000 by now.

Come on, this one doesnt even have the easily repairable bulkhead rot. 10g's is a steal for a 16 year old boat. I've seen 96' Jersey V's go for that in slightly shiner condition

Guy on this site recently sold a V21 for $ 12,000.

Dmoore's boat was impeccable!

I am VERY biased, but the value of the V21s really depends on who you are targeting as buyer. If you compare the functionality of a V21 with other boats on the market, these boats aren't worth 10K (assuming an older engine) - comparing size, power, speed, handling, deck space, etc for a 15+ year boat.

But if you love/appreciate the look of these specific boats, and especially appreciate the Hunt hull design of the Vs, as well as the relative rarity of the V21s, then I can see why they could command a higher price. It's not insane to ask 10K for a v21, but you probably need to be prepared to wait until the right buyer comes along.

It's almost like putting a value on a classic car.

That's probably a decent assessment given all the variables.

A truly MINT item.........if in scarse supply tends to bring a higher price than the average to very good.

Referring back to the offer that included cash and a "super model" thrown in may be a good example. Super model of course depending on the reality.......are we talking " average super model" or ........super, duper super model ?

The guy who sold his V21 for $ 12,000. That appeared to be close to honest MINT condition.

A completely water logged V with warping transom, lousy wiring, decreped trailer, engine that barely runs, and an opposum nest in the cuddy just might not fetch as much.......
