The local marina has listed on their website 3 boats model year 2008,never been titled selling as new. How do you come up with a realistic price? How about financing value? Any input is always welcomed!!

My kids wanted jet skis, and go tubing. So we got a 2005 180 sport, the kids are now away at school so I would take it out so it wouldn,t sit idle. Needless to say, I really like the boat, kind of a sportscar feel. I was thinking of trading up But decided to keep it instead !
To answer your original questions.. If you decide to straighten it with heat, be careful as galvanized steel gives off toxic fumes when heated. Then either let it cool buried in sand or swirl it in 30 wt oil so it won,t loose any temper in the steel. If you press straighten it ,there is a chance...
I need some advice on installing a remote switch for the stereo on a 2005 180 Sport. Sea Ray offered it as a option with the Clarion 4 speaker system. This boat came with a two speaker set up . If I want to adjust the radio now,I have to reach way over to the glove box. Just wondering if there...
