I didn't have a need for a cover because I always keep the boat inside out of the weather and UV.

The boat was in a heated garage during the winter snow

Other options included with the boat:

Dark blue bimini top

Fiberglass swim platform with grab rail and telescoping stainless steel swim ladder

If you want to have your boat get a lot of exposure for not so much bucks ($170) I advise you to go check out Anglersedgemarine.com.

It seems that the post classic whalers are retaining their value as well as the older models, causing the same difficulties in financing a used boat.

I think this is a beautiful boat, in great condition, equipped perfectly, and would fit my needs nicely. However, my banker says NADA on this boat $16,500, and will only lend a fraction of that if I want a used boat loan. This means to purchase it, I must have cash, or take out an equity loan on my home.
If I want to purchase a boat on "payment", the $48k for new @ 6.5% with a small amount down, seems more attractive. I don't layout a large amount of cash, resale seems good, and I only risk my credit rating, not my home if I default.
Can anyone here tell me the BUC value of this boat to perhaps give me more leverage with my banker. Thanks MartyD

This boat new is 45-48 thousand dollors:) 33,700 is an outstanding price....Its your boat, float it anyway you want...This boat is a sweet boat, price is fantastic, and someone will get a wonderful boat at a great price....all that other stuff dosnt matter to the person posting it for sale, thats for you to decide....If you want to spend 48 and pay 7-10 percent thats for you to decide...Im wondering why anyone would pay more and add a interest payment for 10-20 years???...but thats your call.

Try and buy this boat for less........

I would list it on Craigslist if I were you.

I hit it at least once every day, and I still miss the good deals! I haven't even heard of Isell, and yours is the only Whaler on there...

I sold a van, motorcycle, Whaler and an armoire all within one week of listing on Craigslist two years ago when I had to let go of my storage unit in SF.

Go for it.

Wish I had the budget... you're in my neighborhood.

Livingwater & Merc125
it has been well established in previous discussions that there is a major difference of opinion re: Nada prices and in reality what the Market Accepts regarding Bostn Whaler Boats.
Several buyers here on CW have done their investigative homework re: Sales of Classic Boston Whalers and what people around the Country and even the World have asked for, sold for, and bought for....one can document what different models and years of Boston Whalers have sold for, their condition, and present their argument to the particular Banker......Be ready to present your case, you may be surprised

Buc has much fairer values than NADA. If you have a reasonable banker, especially if you belong to a credit union, you could make a case for using Buc as it is an accepted standard.

Best of luck with your sale, but I would be shocked if your boat gets bid above $25k on ebay. People seem to low ball on ebay no matter how clean the boat is. Look at the immaculate 13 GLS from Kansas that only got bid up to $5,300. I have seen some nicely restored boats get bid high on ebay, but I'm not sure how legitimate the bidders were and what "games" were being played. The boats appear to sell at a high price, but when you inquire with the seller after the action closes, the boat is still available.

Your boat is beautiful and it appears you were willing to pay above average market value when you bought your boat because of its excellent condition, or because of the sales pitch you were given, or both. You will have to find someone that will buy into the "story" on this boat like you did, but don't expect to find that person on ebay. I think your best course of action would be to advertise on "specialty" forums like CW and The Hull Truth. You are more likely to get someone that appreciates your boat there. I know there are other "specialty" forums and hopefully some of the other CW members will tell you what they are.

Once again, best of luck to you.

It's also listed on craigslist (Northeast Connecticut)
And currently running on boats.com

Please note:

The boat was commissioned on April 6, 2006 as new and comes with transferable warranties:
Hull until 2016
150 Optimax until 2011

No matter how NADA prices this boat they should have a third column for mint condition
NADA uses a 115 Hp in their calculations but should have the means to price in the larger 150 Hp

If your in the market for an awesome 19 footer...

Hi Henry:

The boat show season is starting in January.

My 190 will be sold by the end of February.

P.S.
NADA needs to correct their boat value estimating process. The pricing they are using for Boston Whalers must be for the other brands which are "paper thin" plastic tubs!

www.birbariemarine.com/flash.htm

Livingwater posted 12-30-2007 08:27 AM ET (US)     Profile for Livingwater  Send Email to Livingwater     
NADA estimates the used value of a 2007 190 Outrage at only $24,000.
That's approx. 1/2 the cost of a new 2008.

Plus as the "cost of living" increases annually the value of used boats and cars should not depreciate as much as calculated by others.

For those that are looking for a cheaply made bargain...Buy another brand

Real men (and women) buy real boats W.H.A.L.E.R

You might try boats.com. It's searchable by brand and length, and by miles from a zip code. I got several good hits on the last Whaler I sold from there, although ultimately a drive-by bought her.

Living, be patient you have a beautiful boat and its just a matter of time before the right buyer comes along. Given the fact that your boat was always kept in a heated garage and you have a 3+ year warranty on your 150 H.P. motor and an 8+ year warranty on your hull, it really is like someone is buying a new boat. What you need is a person who can pay in cash and does not need financing. The NADA low value hurts people trying to get a bank loan on a used one and the low dealer financing rates are luring people toward brand new. Also, dealers are offering huge discounts to move inventory. You can buy a brand new 19' Outrage in the mid to high $30's (even though the list in the $40's) and thats hurting resale too. However, I would still buy your like new 19 Nantucket in a heartbeat over a brand new one if I wanted a 19' Nantucket/Outrage. I think its just a matter of time before someone else realizes this and buys your pristine boat. Best of luck to you and if I can send someone your way, I certainly will.

Ron,

$25k for your like new 2004 19' Nantucket boat with a 4 year remaining warranty on the motor and an 8 year warranty on the hull is very fair, IMO. The fact that your boat has a 150 H.P motor, was kept in a heated garage, was never bottom painted and has long term warranties left on the motor and hull should be worth THOUSANDS to a prospective buyer. Not many used boats can offer all of that. If I was looking to buy a 19' Nantucket for personal use, yours would definitely be the one I would buy based on its pristine condition, engine size, warranty and reasonable price. Hopefully, someone from CW will upgrade from the boat they have and buy this boat to USE (this would make Dan happy since he does not like people who buy boats to flip). Heck, lower your price a little more and you will have some boat flippers interested too :)! Once again, best of luck to you and I hope your fine boat sells soon.

Gentlemen,

I think $25,000 for this boat is extremely fair. The lack of a buyer says more about the status of the US economy than it does about the value of this boat. The housing crisis, escalating gas prices, and the weak dollar are not going to help boat sales, new or used.

This particular model has been a slow seller on CW this past year. We listed our 2003 last winter on boats.com, CW and locally and had no strikes for several months. very few inquiries on CW. Finally ended up trading it in on an '07 210 Outrage.
friend99 posted 01-08-2008 01:53 PM ET (US)     Profile for friend99    
Mobjack...What did they give you on the trade in for your 19' Nantucket last year? That would give some idea to the people selling as to the worth on a trade-in if they wanted to go that route. Your boat was a year older but it was traded in a year earlier so the value should be the same.

I don't agree with you. The motor is warrantied until 2011, so even if you are not a opti fan, this should calm your fears. Also, the asking price of this boat is thousands less than others and in better condition with no bottom paint.
Livingwater posted 01-08-2008 08:25 PM ET (US)     Profile for Livingwater  Send Email to Livingwater     
This is truly a great deal for someone who can't afford a brand new boat.
I read alot of negative post about the 150 Optimax but I'll tell you this specific engine is AWESOME!

The only trouble I encountered was when I first started to use the boat; the engine would consume oil from the reserve tank instead of the main 2-1/2 gallon tank because of an air leak in the system.
My dealer fix it and I haven't had any other issues since.

$25,000 for this boat is a give away considering the condition and the care I have given it.
Not too may people would wash and shammy dry their boat after each use.

The boat is in pristine condition. Even the skeg doesn't have a scratch on it.

It's always been stored indoors when not used


The boat goes back to $28,700 after January 9, 2008.

I am not sure if this is helpful but there are many of us Canadians going to the States to purchase boats. Pricing in Canada is higher, and now with our dollar on par a boat like yours you may get some interest from Canadian buyers from Ontario. I suggest finding a few websites/forums for Ontario boaters and post your boat there.

friend99, even though its warrantied till 2011 you still have to live with it, or rather listen to it. Thats the main drawback to the optimax.
That being said at 25k you could trade the opti for 4stroke or e-tec. I traded mine for a yamaha 150.
The 190 is a great boat and can be set up in different ways for cruising, skiing, fishing.I plan to keep mine for many years to come.
Living, its clear from all your posts that this is a rig in show room condition. Trailer it to the parking lot of an upcoming boat show and you`ll have alot of eyes on it!
I have always enjoyed your posts on the 190 threads.
Wondering...what are you moving up to?
friend99 posted 01-09-2008 09:30 AM ET (US)     Profile for friend99    
Kencvit.........I'm not a Mercury fan either, but I agree with you on the trade-in. At least this boat has a 150 H.P. Mercury motor with a 4 year warranty to trade-in. it would be a lot worse if it was a 115 Mercury with no, or little, warranty.

I found some old interesting Performance Data on engines with the Nantucket...here are some quotes...Nothing worse about what i have or and other Nantucket

Dont belive everything you read from some on here...Living no offense:) its not you:)


Boston whaler gave these to Jim over three years ago!


Dont belive everything you read from some on here...Living no offense:) its not you:)

"As is quite normal with moderate vee-hull boats, the 190 Nantucket boat appears to need about 20-MPH to get onto hydroplane. In comparing all engines, the most powerful (the 150-HP Optimax) has the boat on plane at the lowest engine speed (3000-RPM), a result of its larger pitch propeller and gear ratio (only engine less than 2:1). Curiously, one of the least powerful engines (115-HP 2-stroke) appears to be able to get the boat on-plane almost as well! And even more interesting, the other 115-HP engine (the 4-stroke) needs the most engine speed to have the boat up on plane (however it has the least propeller pitch, so this is expected). Note that all the 115-HP engines have the same gear ratio. The reason the 2-stroke engines are able to reach plane at lower engine speeds may be more torque at those lower engine speeds. The 115-HP Optimax is not as fast as the 115-HP classic 2-stroke, which has quite an edge in engine displacement (113 vs 93 cubic-inches)".

top speed with the 115 Classic carb motor is 41.60
top speed with the 135 opti is 42.50
top speed with the 150 opti 44.50

weight for the classic is 348 Lbs
weight for the 135 xl and 150 XL is 431 lbs


Its safe to say that i get better MPG with the 115 classic, and nearly the same performance with the Black Max or Stainless steel vengence...pick your flavor:)My boat gets up on plane at 2500 RPMs

And of course I to have a extended warrenty:)

I would not just listen to this idle chatter used to speculate and to just stir things up and turn prospective buyers to and from differnet boats, there not buying them, there just flipping what they can and they are not the know it all:)they think they are...check there postings...almost 90 percent are negitive in nature and nasty. look at the one on model Whalers and you will see how they bad mouthed one, and then tryed to sell the ame one for hundreds more!I know people around here know much better. I am sure we don't need this type of person to tell us what we should buy or not buy, and surly not tell us whats best for us based on the history behind there posts....they are bottom feeders.....pay them no mind:)

tests were made by Boston whaler and reproduced here more than 3 years ago by cont. wav. and Jim...

I rest my case flipper(:)

Its safe to say that i get better MPG with the 115 classic

Why is it safe to say that you will get better fuel economy with a classic carbed motor than an Optimax or 4 stroke?

You are never going to see better fuel economy with a classic carbed outboard versus a DFI or 4 stroke, especially on the relatively heavy 190 Nantucket with its minimum rated HP.

Yiddle,

Regarding the performance data you reference above, you say that tests were done by Boston Whaler and they concluded that a 115 H.P. Carb motor perfomed almost as good as a 150 Opti on a 19' Nantucket. You also say this performance test by Boston Whaler was reproduced here on CW. Given the fact the 115 HP motor is not even offered on the 2007 Nantucket/Outrage (the smallest motor offered is a 135 HP), I think this article would be an interesting read.

Please let us know we can read the actual full Boston Whaler performance test article and results on the 115 vs 150 HP motor, or where it was reproduced here on Continous Wave.

Your statement and answer regarding the gas mileage, appears confusing and my fear is that you confused the BW article as well.

Perry,

Thank you for posting the link. I just wanted full disclosure. Now, people can read the entire article and make there own conclusions instead of reading only what Yiddil cut and paste. The article states that the tests were done with two adults aboard. As we all know, these tests are performed in calm lake waters. The performance of a 115 vs. 150 HP in a 2-3 foot chop in the bay with your family on board will be much different. Funny how he never pasted the following part of the article either:

"The data presented here is simply a record of boat speed versus engine speed. It can be resonably assumed that the instrumentation used to obtain engine speed and boat speed was accurate, but there are other considerations. As in every other presentation of this type of informaton ever seen in boating literature, there is no notation of time. Time to reach a certain speed, say 30-MPH, is another measurement. It is one that is often used to compare acceleration, but that data is not provided here. These data points cannot tell us which engine and propeller combination reached a particular speed the fastest, however I think it safe to bet on the ones with the higher horsepower"

What I mean't was an ability to edit spelling error's, fix incorrect link addresses, etc.

This is a great forum and it's a previlage that JimH gave to all of the Whaler family members to use.

Hopefully , everyone will get back on track and continue to make this forum (or atleast my thread) worthy to be associated with the Boston Whaler brand which in my opinion are second to none in boat manufacturing.

Living, perhaps it's time to post a new ad, and get rid of this thread or let it just die. Your sale is being clouded by all the other posting. It is about selling your boat and that is getting lost in all the bickering, take care......Jack

Hopefully, Yiddle will stay off your new thread. It was totally inapropriate for him to defend his under powered 115 H.P. Nantucket on your thread. He should have done that on his thread only.
