I have an 18 foot Crestliner 1850 sportfish 2003 that it’s time to sell
Aluminum hull. Has some dents and scrapes and scratches but hull is sound
It has a Yamaha VMax 150 hp 2-cycle motor with approximately 200 hours on it
Also has a 9.9 hp Yamaha kicker motor
80 lb thrust 24 volt Terrova trolling motor
Two 10 inch lowrance screens, one at the helm another in the front of the boat
On board battery charger/maintenance installed in the boat
I love it, but it is time to part ways

How much should I sell it for? I really have no idea

Thank you for your help

Check NADA values and see what they come up with.

20-25k is best guess without seeing it and limited data provided...start at $25K and see if you get any interest

It's a 2003 maybe around $10,000 if in great shape .
I just sold a 1999 tracker targa 115 hp optimax in pretty good condition for 6500

I have a 2003 Sportfish 1850 as well, but with a Yamaha f115. It had only 250 hours on it at the time I bought it in 2017, and I paid 10k for it, but down in Arkansas. Some dealers up in MN offered him 12k, he had listed it for 11k, but he sold it to me since I was close and an actual person. I had to put on a 80lb terrova, batteries, and charger, which is why I offered so low. 20k seems a bit too high, even with the bigger Vmax and kicker. The boat craze is over, and we're teetering in a semi-recession.

On another note, why it's called a 1850 and not 1801 Sportfish baffles me. It's 18'1", not 18'6". Check the classifieds on walleyecentral for current price ranges too.

Keep in mind the cost of the electronics. If they're older, they're probably not worth much. Same with the terrova. Looking at others over the last few years, off the top of my head I'd say $15000 depending on condition. It probably has transom rot at that age too.

Thanks for the input guys. The electronics are a bit older. I think most of us would think they still work ??
I appreciate you helping find an estimate
Now I need to figure out where to post the sale
Fortunately stored indoors for 20 years, so wood rot shouldn’t be a problem
