Boats on Used Victoria and Other Areas

That seems like a really good deal, throw a newer 40 on there and you have a fishing machine

I’m sure it was available within the last year, as the Maple Bay Rowing Club was selling off one of their work boats. It was for sale without power.

Thoughts on this 1980’s arima? Seems like a sky high asking price but I know these boats are sought after.

having owned 7 Arima's over the years, I guess I am a certified Arima nut, but even for me, that price just seems too much.
The custom transom cap is not an asset in my books and the 6 hp kicker is of limited value as a trolling motor.
Still a fantastic boat - maybe I'm just out of touch?
 
Add 10-15k on to anything right now for a price 2 years ago. A 15k boat is now 25k.

I am almost bailing on looking for a new upgrade boat, and just leaning to new power right now. I can't believe the prices honestly in the used boat world.
 
I've put wanted ads since Sept. in Craigslist and UsedVic for a 20-24Ft. boat with very few replies. Those that did send descriptions of their boats were hoping to get way more for a 20-25 year old boat than I was willing to pay.I can buy older 30-35 Ft. boats cheaper than the size range I'm after. And I'm willing to spend up to $60K. Slim pickins these days.I've only been contacted by 2 people locally (Vancouver) and more in Seattle,but their prices are as high as ours and then you have to add 35% on top,not worth it.

That is what I am finding as well.

I’m with @Enniberg if it was a mint well kept with small tasteful modification maybe but I don’t see it as it has been listed and taken down 3 times since October. Putting the wrong motor on doesn’t increase the value. Nice it has a kicker but a close look by an expert just at the kicker much less the details on everything else may not make you a happy shopper.

I’d keep looking.
