Just curious how good of a price that is.

The hydrollic jackplate will help the value a little as will the tandem axle trailer and the 36v trolling motor but that still seems a little high for a 8 year old boat, even if it is a Ranger. Doesn't seem totally out of the ballpark but still seems a little high.

Yeah i thought it might be at first but with only 100 hours on the motor that is pretty good for 2002 boat. Also the 36 v trolling motor is a good plus. The cover is still in the box. Every other boat that is comparable I have found is 20k so I am really liking this just thought I might get some more feedback from the traffic on here.

Yeah that's pretty dang good hours on that motor. Like I said I don't think the price is way out of line but I would do some haggling and see where you end up. Ranger covers are high dollar and they are a great cover so that is another plus. Good luck with whatever you decide and post pics should you buy her.
