Although I have put alot of time and money into My pathfinder 15t I am looking to upgrade to a larger skiff that is more comfortable to go out with family. My question is value of the boat, I know typically this boat with the original motor goes 5 to 7k depending on what shape its in. But I have put alot into my boat and i know i cannot get what I have in the boat but I would like to know yalls opinion what would be a realistic selling price. I have a number in mind but i dont want to post and that be far fetched. Here are the specs of my boat.

2001 pathfinder 15t
No stringer issues
2019 Suzuki 50hp 16 hours on it. 6 year warranty. All new controls.
Manual jackplate
Jack foreman 3 blade prop
Garmin GPS
Trim tabs
New Custom Poling platform
Trailer is same year as boat but has fairly new parts and functions properly.

The mistake a lot of sellers make is to add up every thing they've spent on a boat and then figure that's a fair price for a sale. It's not. Don't expect to break even on a boat. For a reasonably quick sale, do a little research, see what comparable boats are actually selling for and price accordingly.

Can’t hurt to start with what you want out of it. Too high and you won’t get callers. Can drop it a little and get some tire kickers. Still no solid leads, drop a little more and you will see more interest as you are now in the ballpark.


If you get a ton of calls right off the bat it is probably priced too low. Remove ad quickly and start again before you sell too cheap.

As much as I would love to get 15k I don't feel I could get that amount for it, I posted what I thought was fair and I have a number that i wont go below. I would rather keep it then sell it for something I'm not comfortable with.

You may be able to get more if you part it out. Those skiffs tend to sit for awhile, but that motor would sell pretty quick.

I tend to think that any aftermarket parts like trolling motors, electronics etc. tend to get about 50-75% of their face value when on a skiff. In other words your GPS is only worth about half what you paid for it same with the other accessories. Add that up and then add it to what you think the boat, motor and trailer are worth. It also helps to look at what similar skiffs are going for
