Oh ya the boat is 11-6" I also have a short shaft 60 Johnson that would need a some work but ran 8 yrs ago when it came off another boat that I would throw in for free (tired of looking at it)

Value is in the eye of the beholder sometimes. I had a nine year old 18' Wellcraft that I got for nothing, rebuilt the engine, had the glass guy at work take care of all the stress cracks and browned gel coat and added a fresh water system and leaning post. Used it for a year. Someone came to where I work and saw the boat and asked how much, i said "not for sale". He said "everything is for sale" so I said $10,000. (I had about 4,000 into it) He tried to chew me down and I said I really didn't want to sell it. Next day he came by with $10,000 cash-----SOLD! The kicker was, he could have went three miles down the road to the Wellcraft dealer and bought a brand new boat same model and engine for $11,900. Yeah, I think you could get $2500 for it, post it for $2,800 in CL and let them chew you to what you want for it.

3500 is where I would start. I'm not ashamed to tell anyone either you want it or you don't. If you want it fine, if you don't go bother someone else.

Cool little boat by the way.
