I have a 2005 Carrera 257 Party Effect, so please no Carrera bashing. But is this boat really worth anything close $85K?

Yes, high

Maybe it's a new merc 1350

it's been listed for 2 months...so I'd say he's high...or is wife is making him sell the boat.

im not an expert in the subject but that seems high.

Who in the hell thought the gelcoat on that thing would look good?

Never no could be a divorce. Shitty ad, high price, if he can’t sell it the courts will determine a value that he can buy his wife’s half for way lower then market price. Happens a lot, smart tactic.

Don’t you own the premier West Coast boating website?

I worked for Aftershock/Carrera before they took a dump.

Back in 2005 they were around that price with a 496.
13 or 14 years later he's trying to off it for what he bought it for.

My opinion........

Must have been at some bbq. Won’t mention names but I think I’m gonna go to a bbq (soon) and sell my sled.

I’d hve to say it’s for sale but not for sale.

SHE IT

As high as all the boats are these days, i see it as him figuring he’d cash in if someone is willing to buy.

Mines listed, but only as if i can get real Money out of it I’ll sell in a heartbeat

To be fair, he was at a bbq when he posted the ad.

With the nav light it looks like some giant orange flaming tadpole.

He left his phone number on the ad so I would say it’s actually for sale. He must think it’s a Magic with a 525 for that price, lol. That’s a $40K boat all day!

 

[rvrrun]

At least the ad is in depth and descriptive.

Unless there’s 6 outboards hanging off the back of the transom I’m not interested

This what happens when people take 20 year loans on a boat. You are upside down for 15 of them.

 

[aka619er]

Holy shit. I actually thought that was you selling your boat. Totally different!

But only 9 hours. His wife must really hate it.
