You can always list it and see what happens. If it didn't sell in a predetermined period of time, have it shipped. If you know a broker, they could run comps on sold boats for you. That way you'll have a better idea of your boat's worth. I think the updates and upgrades certainty make your b

of school
>From my previous post a few minutes ago describing an expedition from Lake
