Published guides for used Boston Whaler boat pricing are very inaccurate and worthless. Members of the owner sites and groups are in a better position to offer suggested list prices. It could anywhere between 5k - 12k.

The more details offered, the more accurate the value and suggested selling price.

Is the gelcoat original? Condition? (photos help)
Bottom paint?
What has been replaced and with what? OEM parts or aftermarket?
Electronics?
Cushions?
Canvas? Brand, age, condition
Trailer?
Engine hours?
Salt/fresh/mix?
Moored/slipped or trailered/lift?
Location for sale?

To add to what Phil says, keep in mind your market. You're selling a boat that's 50+ years old, so it's not going to appeal to the newbie or someone who's not really a Whaler fan. People will have a tendency to look at the age, then bluebook and offer accordingly. Looks like you've got a nice one on your hands. Good luck with the sale.
