Don't, put her on a trailer and save as said above. I am in the same boat Kenny, new motor on an older hull, nice hull but you could not sell it today for a fair price.
Keep her on the trailer, you have launches all over by you and use her.

This is an @ss-backwards idea but what if you sold the etec and put a solid used motor in its place....put some dough in your pocket and still keep the boat. Problem is, you'd still lose money. Dangit, why can't boats/motors be a good monetary investment??

I like the trailer idea too, provided you have somewhere to store it.

I am in the same situation with my 2 daughters 14 and 12. Not only is that staring me down but my job is not likely to exist within the next 1 - 2 years. Hoping to scrape by somehow some way.........

Theres an idea. Lumber can sell me his Etec and I'll trade him my 99' 200 Ocean Pro plus cash. Just bolt on and plug in. He gets some cash and keeps the boat and I get a newer motor, win win. Now sell me that Etec Lumber.

And any seller is going to ask for a grand off the selling price to cover the cost of getting that damn "Bump Ken's" off the sides.

I think you should clean it up a little before you even try to sell it... Man, that things dirty!!

You'll never get what you put into it. But just as an answer to your question, I'd guess anywhere between 6-10 grand for it, depending on the time of year, buyer, and your feelings at the time. Hell, I'll put an offer of $6900 on the board right now.,,,but I really hope you don't take it. Like the others said, take it out of the slip, make her a trailer queen. That will save you 2 grand a year right there.
