Need help in pricing 1977 Master Angler

jorgeinmiami · #1 07-09-2009, 10:55 AM

I'm looking at a 77 MA to buy no motor no trailer.
I have not been out to the boat yet but owner says that floor has no soft spots and transom is good, but I know it's only a matter of time. The console was pulled to inspect the gas tank and he says it was good but I will replace it just to be safe and not have to do it again in a year. It comes with the original console and the bench/cooler seat also

He would like to even trade me for my 17 Stump Jumper with a 25 HP Tohatsu and trailer that is in Great shape.

the boat althiugh dirty seems like it not to bad but pics lie all the time

I have always wanted a MA and I want to move on it quickly if the numbers work out

What do you think it could be worth?

Comments please as soon as possible

Keep this away from Strick, he'll want to offer $821.

For $821.00 it has to be turn key!

seriously I think what bigshrimpin said would be a realistic place to start.

I would not pay any more than $300.00 and only if there is $21.00 in loose change inside.

I plan on going to see the boat on Saturday and kick the tires

did you find this one on craigslist? there was a 20MA on there a few weeks ago that i never got to see wondering if this was the same one

jorgeinmiami · #8 07-10-2009, 02:26 PM

Not on craigslist I was contacted by the owner in reference to my sale of my stump jumper

Which is still for sale

Seller gives you the MA and $____.00 cash and you give him your boat.

Well I drove over to see the boat today and it was in the condotion I thought it would be. 1st it was real dirty all over. The floor has 1 soft spot to the left of the center console and the transom was solid. What I did like was that all the parts were there and it di not have to mant hole in the console or the boat.

So I drove it home

(notice the trailer only has 1 axle) and begun cleaning and inspecting the whole boat.

My plans are to rewire, pull tank and inspect, change all the gas hoses, eleminate the aux engine braket, compound and wax, reinstall the console after it is done, buy rocket launcher and t top.

Here are some pics after I cleaned her up a bit

Towards the end when the $$$ appear trailer and engine.
