Still look at different options from local Sea Ray dealer. Now I am looking at a 2009 210 Select. A couple of Questions: 1) Is a 5.0 MPI / Bravo 3 a good combo for this size boat? Power wise?? 2) How much off a MSRP of $51,000 can I expect for a cash deal, no trade? Anybody buy one...

The major difference, in that boat and the one I think you are looking at is the Drive. The boat you test drove had a Alpha 1. If the other one you are looking at has a Bravo 3, Dual-Prop. It will steer much better at slower speeds...

Hopes, I am just trying to come up with what I think the boat is worth. There seems to be a difference between what they want for the boat and what I think it is worth, we might not get the job done, but I have not offered them anything yet, so we will see... My thinking, If I am buying a 2007...

Now I have found the MSRP on a 2007 230 Select with these options is $52K from the Sea Ray site. That means the $39.5K they want to sell it for is only 25% off MSRP. A 40% of MSRP would be more like $31K. I also looked up the NADA value for a used 2007 230 and that is around $27K for a used...

Thanks for the replies!! So nobody thinks I am crazy thinking about offering them 32K on a 2 year old (NEW) boat. I looked up a new 2009 with the same options, it would MSRP around $61K. Which I am guessing that would run around $45K cash... In which case I would have a brand new year, with the...

Hopes, I have been reading your treads too. This is a new boat, but no tower, which I don't care about, but otherwise about the same options as what you are looking at. I have never bought a new boat before and am not sure what is a good deal. I would think they would love to sell a boat that...

Yes, I was thinking with 210 or 230, I would want the 350. I am a horse power guy, plus at 6'5''. If I want to do any skiing or what not, I want the power. The price doesn't include a tower, which I don't need. Their offer was $39,500 with trailer. I know they want to move this boat, they have...

First time poster. I have been around boats my whole life and want to get our growing family a new Sea Ray boat. I have been to our local sea ray dealer and fell in love with a 210 select for the last year. But now, they have some hold-over 2007 230 selects with the 350Mag and Bravo 3. Their...
