who's in the area of mount pleasant SC??? does this seem too cheap for this boat? would love a whaler this size but twice the price, or more. this one doesn't look that bad.

30 year 0ld hull
20 year old motor
seems about right

i had a 16 ft wahoo w/70 omc. great boat it was the side console version. had a built in fuel tank under the seat, no way to get to it without major surgery.

like a whaler without the whaler price, which also reflects in the resale

Price looks about right to me. They tend to go for slightly less down here.

I was thinking it was a little high... Would need to talk him down a bit.

oh, I would definitely bang him down. when they say 'OBO', they don't know just how bad they're gonna get beat up. funny, same boat in a whaler is up around 10 to 12k.

Well I suppose you could offer to pay more ............

Doesn't seem high to me, if hull, motor, trailer checks out and you want it, I'd offer less.
Realistic, but less........

With a WHALER you're paying for the name more than anything else. Nothing wrong with a McKee as I almost bought one before I got the deal on my skiff.
