27' SeaDancer

[dwna1a]

I've got a friend of mine selling his 1985 SeaDancer and I'm trying to help him set a price. This thing is in mint condition but he is ready to move up to a 34'. Are these boats really that rare to find on the used boat market?

The problem is that BUC and NADA guides are notoriously inaccurate, and the prices for these years have now dropped to where most are probably sold through Craigslist and related ads. In addition, you are talking about a 30 year old boat and the condition, and therefore value, is going to be an individual determination unique to each boat. A 1985 Sun Dancer could be "worth" anything from 2,500 to 25,000 -- although the worth is ultimately only what someone will pay for it. Having said all that, shoot me a PM if you want me to run a soldboats report of whatever similar sales I can find. I may have to expand the years, time frame and/or location -- but I'm sure I can come up with something that might help.

I got mine for 11,500. How many hours and what conditions? These are OUTSTANDING boats!
