How much to advertise for?

I am leaving the SIB crew and moving onto a rib for a 25hp. The boat in question is a honwave t40 (4 meters long) with an aluminium floor and all of the kit to go with it including an additional bow seat/box with padding, the bench seat has about 5 inches of waterproof padding and a swivel chair for driving. It has not patches and is in good condition. I can't find any for sale which is why I am asking.

It would come with a bunker trailer in fairly good condition. Because it has been submerged to launch it is obviously a little rusty in some areas, but not to any bad extent by all means. We towed the boat 80 miles the last week with no problems.

I asked my local boat dealer and he thought the boat was worth £500 without the trailer. So, what do you think?

i recon they go for about half price ,best price i have found is £900 so £450-£500 is pretty fair though to be honest it depends who wants what and when

What did you pay for the set up, boat, trailer (engine?)?

Add it up, have a look at previous ebay sales of similer craft (or search the for sale archive on here) and if the two are about the same then that's the answer.

Pete on here is a good one to ask, he also does brokerage sales

I sold my 3.83 Yam with a bunked trailer and 25hp engine for £1400.

PS - is that Thornbury in Devon?

No, thornbury near bristol. Cheers for the input. I am going to advertise for £650, if I get no interest then I will lower

I think thats a fair price including the trailer and accessories.
