Gotta know if it's got a title.

[@DudeLetsFish]

Ohhhh, I missed that! VERY IMPORTANT!!

[@Harlanmote]

Not every state requires a title to get a tag.

[@claytonburris3874]

Louisiana needs a title for the trailer as well. That missing title can cause havoc.

[@kingwoolen]

Only register in al

[@WayneTheBoatGuy]

The prices vary widely depending on where you are and the time of year. Here in Maryland near the bay it seems stuff often goes for way too much. One like that, in that exact condition would be $1,000 easily (as long as it had a title).

[@DudeLetsFish]

Good review!

[@paulpinto9783]

300.00. It’s tuff to put a price on someone’s problem. They’re selling for a reason

[@markcollins5026]

Man, I'm in Arizona anything that has to do with outdoors goes for top dollar, like ATVS, campers boat's dirtbikes, here that would at least go for $1200 or more !

[@fredbuck8800]

You forgot the 2 most important questions.... Does the boat have a watercraft certificate (title) and does the trailer have a title. May not matter to some, but if you customize it and want to get your money back out of it , it does matter. Have been down that road before.

[@DudeLetsFish]

Agree 100%

[@65MK]

I would start negotiating with him at $600, and go up to $7-800 the most if the paperwork was in order and depending on if the trailer is in immediate usable shape.

[@DudeLetsFish]

Agree

[@DudeLetsFish]

Yes

[@Ahbustae86]

Damn! Looking at the prices in the comments, where I live is 3 to 4 times those prices.

[@DudeLetsFish]

😂😅

[@stanleybest8833]

I bought a 52 CC air cooled 4 stroke Hangkai motor. It's a super smooth light replacement for the trolling motor, which I'd give away.

[@z2owhat]

My area, southern WV, that would easily sell for 1200 with titles.

[@bullyakker]

up north here? I find these for 150-700 all the time though no front deck.. yet I find many with 4-10 HP motor and also older bass boats for under $2000 yet they weigh too much for the family mobile.. Being "winter" i am grabbing a 14' v hull with a 9.9 merc and trailer for $1700! (I can currently grab 14' jons used for 150- 500 used all over

[@DudeLetsFish]

Funny how they can sell that cheap up to $1,000, love messing with them. Merry Christmas

[@joebird1400]

You guys have a champagne appetite on a beer budget.

[@backwaterboatrehab]

Boat prices are really regional, but around here, that boat would be around $800. The boat I've been building is a 1436 and was about the same shape as that one and came w/ a 7.5 hp outboard, TM, battery, battery charger, and s few other extras and I got it for $600. But I also bought it in the winter time.

[@iwantosavemoney]

4-500 and press the trailer being to short for the boat

[@DefiniteScorpio]

If both the boat and trailer are titled, in Eastern PA - $1000-1200 (if trolling motor worked), if trolling motor didnt work about 400 less.

[@DudeLetsFish]

Agree

[@Kiereze]

First before I even go look at it in person, if your state requires it, you gotta ask "Do you have a clean title in hand?" In my state if they answer no to that you're better off looking elsewhere for a other boat. Now if that one had a title, I'd give $300 for the boat and $600 for the trailer boat combo. I live in Kentucky, so these things are laying around everywhere luckily. If you live someplace else you may have to shell out more money for one

[@CedarVisualMedia]

thx Dude!!! Great tips! going to check one out that also comes with a 6hp Evenrude t'day!!! 👍🏽

[@DudeLetsFish]

Did you get it?

[@Starmangmh57]

Couldn't help but notice the Carvins Cove sticker on it. That's where I do most of my fishing. Unfortunately at the moment I'm just renting their row boats. Hope to pick me up something like this next spring. I live in Troutville.

[@billyhurley6866]

Trailer looks like it needs some major work maybe 100 for it. Boat looks pretty good, I would say 400 for it. I would start with that.

[@Ahbustae86]

What signs do you see that indicates it needs major work? I’m looking for one and any info would help me when looking at a trailer.

[@gallopwave]

It looks like a 500 boat. Fix it up and clean it, expand the deck, then flip it for 1000, if the trolling motor works.

[@richardcoffey3125]

That’s a $400-$500 boat in Indiana. I’ve seen them go for as little as $200 set up like that. I just bought a 14’ Jon boat, by itself, for $150, delivered. I’ll clean it up and let it go for $350.

[@DudeLetsFish]

That’s killer!

[@makomike1169]

Up to $1,000...I'm from NY and used to paying too much. Seriously looks like a nice boat in good shape.

[@goldseekersadventures9380]

I just bought a John boat for $1200 in excellent shape, boat and trailer with electric motor. Boat and trailer in excellent condition. Other than driver side tail light needs to be replaced.😊

[@DudeLetsFish]

That’s awesome!! Buy a set of tail lights for $25 off amazon

[@goldseekersadventures9380]

@@DudeLetsFish Walmart has them cheaper

[@cadent.3132]

Prolly give around 800 bucks for it

[@83jbbentley]

If it doesn’t have a title what can you do about that? I saw something about a bill of sale I’m just curious how that works?

[@DudeLetsFish]

Really depends on the state, I’m sure you can title it, just takes a while

[@yvens001]

With title 800 in Florida.

[@glenntorrico]

I'd give 600 spend a day with some painting and cleaning and sell it as a project boat with curb appeal for $1,100

[@johngray2526]

lol your a flipper bruh and probably not the only one. 😂 you know this boat could see many owners b4 it really has a true owner that'll say I'm happy wit my boat

[@joebird1400]

Sounds bout right

[@toolman5256]

I would pay 6-700 if the boat and trailer had titles and vin/hin plates

[@michaelgioquindo3379]

Max I’d pay $800

[@jtautoflowerguy1576]

If it has a title id offer 400 but i wouldnt go more than 550

[@alexjackson858]

I just picked up at 14' valco and heavy duty trailer for $300 in NorCal. Probably gonna fix her up and sell with or without the trailer.

[@DudeLetsFish]

Sweet!! 👍🏼

[@redsoul4552]

Paid $500 for my starcraft 1436. It was in similar condition minus the wiring and trolling motor.

[@johnfulcher7241]

What should you look at when inspecting the axle of the trailer?

[@DudeLetsFish]

Actually I would hook it up and drive it down the road a few miles while checking the trailer as I drive and then look for grease when you park it, or listen for that sizzle from bad bearings

[@working2bselfsufficient724]

Heck ya

[@scotthummel4248]

Here in texas, that boat would go for 800 to 1000 bucks, if it has clear titles on it

[@DudeLetsFish]

Sounds about right 👍🏼

[@gunfisher4661]

there`s been some pricey beat up ones for sale lately.

[@DudeLetsFish]

Yeah, they a little higher now than when this video was released

[@ernestleal6890]

I'm being offered one right now for $250, but hesitating on it cause it has no title and I would like a trolling motor on it and to have a trolling motor on it we need to have it registered. My daily dilemma...lol How much were they wanting after all?

[@DudeLetsFish]

Not sure what he got for it

[@mgallager1449]

$1000-$1500

[@bradforddillman7274]

Id go on the up and say 1000 or even 1200. Would I pay that. Prob not but I’d ask that if I was selling it. How wide would you prefer a Jon boat?

[@DudeLetsFish]

36 is as narrow as I’d go

[@jimb6683]

1200 as is 1400 if trolling motor test good

[@glennjohnston7115]

I would rather not have rivits! They will leak in time

[@joemartin6439]

The boat need cleaning . He guy just wants the mess gone. Start at $350 go up to $500

[@billclinton94]

You are hilarious

[@vinhha6073]

I guess with just a boat and trailer.. it's 700-the real prize is 900... 👍

[@scottstamey9833]

does it have titles,if so 800.00, if not 500.00

[@DudeLetsFish]

[@gohoosgo75]

[@Sagicorn24]

My husband is selling an almost pristine Jon boat with a trailer. Boat is titled but the trailer isn’t but he’s had it 3 years and never had an issue. I’m sure it’s solvable but should he come down on the price because there’s no title to the trailer?

[@Sagicorn24]

We live in VA, bought it second hand in VA but the trailer plate is from PA

[@DudeLetsFish]

Trailers can be easily titled but with the pandemic going on it might take a while and doubt someone would get pulled over for it
