To add to this from a recent buyer (repeat what some have already said) we bought our boat a couple weeks ago. After striking out many times on boats listed at the normal places (Under contract/already sold)
#1. I decided to check out Facebook Marketplace. The boat had been posted up three hours earlier by a friend/local mechanic of the owner. Meant to be, right ? LOL I drove down and looked the next morning and had a deposit down before I left.
#2. We looked at a similar boat, a 4100 Maxum with diesels the week before on my lake. There is a fair chance that had the owner removed all of his crap from the inside that we would have been a buyer. I have had two houseboats and two cruisers, all years ago and would like to think I could look beyond a cluttered cabin. That may not be true and it may have cost him a sale. Something I will remember for sure when I go to sell.
