02 1800 Fisherman Value

I am looking at selling my 02 Lund with a 115 Mercury 4-stroke-ss prop. However, I don’t have any idea what the boat is possibly worth and looking for some help to find a fair selling price. Has a 65 Auto Pilot and two newer 800 series Bird finders. Also has 2–2 bank chargers and a dedicated battery for the finders. Also has a custom snap cover on the bow and cockpit area. Shore Lander bunk trailer with swing tongue and one year old tires. Boat engine has very few hours and has always been inside when not in use. The reason I am interested in finding the value and selling it is because I am retiring in 3 years and want to have a new boat paid off when I retire.

It is a completely different thread topic on replacement boat!

trading in mine ,1997 with 2002 135 optimax , rigged with 2 finders , trolling motor,trailer all batteries etc. $13,750

That is $13,750 Canadian ,about $10500 usd

Condition is everything in a 16 year old boat like this. Also, timing is critical. In CrazyTime from April 15 to June 1, it could easily sell for 15-25% more than it would starting today. Prices and demand drop steeply after August 1.

I’m going to say true good condition or better boats in that line would be $16,500 to $20,000. Possibly better if sold in CrazyTime, or if in significantly better than average condition, but it could also go the other way if condition and maintenance were lacking.

Strictly my independent estimate, YMMV, professional driver on closed course, tax and license extra, all the usual disclamers here.

$1501 Bob

Grouse has it about right. Make sure to give good details on prop and holeshot top end etc. Some may think it’s a lil underpowered but knowing it probably sees mid high 30’s with good hole will help value.

Sounds like a sweet rig.

Show good pictures and details about the boat. Sounds like a nice boat and used boats are a premium right now especially with the tariffs that are set. New boats will no doubt go up in prices quickly. This will drive used boat prices up and up. Just my two cents.

Was at a marine shop month ago or so and overheard a manager or something talking to an employee, and that she just spoke with the vendor rep from alumacraft and their prices were being raised 20% next year across the board.

Direct result of tariffs ?
