Your off to good start. Put an ad on here with pictures of good and bad. Price seems to be a crap shoot anymore.
Facebook marketplace is more popular then Craigslist now.
I Hate to say it but the other FB web site has lots of traffic. Market place also, CL, cheetah if they have site or insta..
The more pics, the less dumb questions
In it to win it

I also hear offer up is a good place.

No bad days.
Here and FB is where I would list. Wouldn't mess with craigslist or boat trader. Whip Trader Classifieds, The Original Powerboat Swap Shop and Lower River Junkies are a couple of sites I would start with. You are in the ball park with your price and should move it quick.

I've had good luck selling boats and other stuff on this site.

FB MP is the go to for online sales at this point. Just be prepared to be bombared with questions like "is it still available?" "will you take a miata on trade?" etc... lots of lookey loos. But thats where the bulk of the traffic is going to be. This site I'm sure would be good, just realize the majority of people join a boating website because they already have boats.

Interesting responses. My go-to is always craigslist, that's where I bought my M3 and sold it a few months ago. Same for the boat and jetskies transactions but those were years ago. I have only been on offer up once, and I don't use FB much besides chatting and business. Good to know maybe I should try them

if i list on CL i normally buy a "burner" phone and use it only for that, cuts down on your primary phone ringing at 2 in the morning. i normally put a couple pics in the add, and then make sure to say i can take pics of anything specific anyone needs.

To the rescue.
More pictures please

The 24' enclosed trailer I just sold got the most hits off craigslist. Although most were definitely scams or lowballs, the full price buyer also came from there.
I like the tactic on this thread but dont you list on every site you can for the most exposure like everyone else? I mean if you dont want to sell it do what you just did on this thread and leave it at that.
Boat trader, two pictures for two weeks for $60 got me the most responses. Facebook marketplace and craigslist also got responses.

it depends on your physical location, in the inland empire offer up is really good, here in havasu it isnt worth a shit. facebook marketplace and specific buy and sell groups has been pretty good for me on what i do, so has craigslist for everyday items. craigslist charging for vehicle ads now sucks as a buyer just looking around for a good deal or a specific vehicle for sale. also as a seller i feel paying for a cl ad (granted is 5 bucks) has created a smaller audience of potential buyers since most vehicle ads are from dealers. overall if its priced correctly it will sell.
I recently sold 2 boats. I advertised in multiple places and by far the most activity and the buyer came from FaceBook Market Place.

I'll be putting up a proper add later today. Hitting Elsinore early tomorrow morning to burn down some gas and make sure everything is still working as expected. Very slim possibility I tow this thing out to the Damn Dam Run for one last go around. We'll see how the day goes.
Doit! Dam dam run!

MRP fountain powerboat
Thread: MRP fountain powerboatThread tools.
 New to the forum - joined specifically to find a good home for my old MRP Fountain 44 inch boat. I had intended to revamp this boat, but I really don't have the time or space to hold onto it forever, and there seems to be an interest in old MRP boats out there. Obviously used condition. No cracks, no abuse. I have a second never completed canopy (shown in picture) because I actually had 2 of these boats at one point. I have many additional decals from the original package. As shown in picture, I have the original box. I also have 2 original assembly manuals which is nice to have. This boat was outfitted with an optional added two motor (single prop) assembly and was pretty quick in my opinion. No electronics included- they are currently all in my Traxxis villan. I do not have the original prop as I attempted to use it on another boat at one point and ruined it. I was considering placing this on ebay (and may still do so if there isn't any interest here). Not so sure how much money to ask for this - would be happy for any suggestions, but thought maybe $40, and then I have to calculate shipping with insurance additionally. I would be happy to add pictures or answer specific questions Thanks for looking, thanks for any interest or comments. I also have a MRP Bud Light tunnel hull that I could sell, but it is in less good shape and the outboard unit has not worked in some time. Chris  Last edited by cevans_2; 05-19-2010 at 10:20 AM . 1st: welcome to the community 2nd: You can do better than $40... these are classics. You should be able to get more but do check on shipping - it should be around $20. Here is my " revamp " thread and video and another of potential. The refurbishment took probably a total of 15-20 hours over the course of a couple weeks. It tends to happen faster when you have all the hardware already.... Since this is an old hull, one question to answer and help with interest: Any damage (cracks, scratches or holes) and more importantly how much sun damage - ABS tends to get crumbly with too much UV. These should be documented so buyer knows EXACTLY what he is getting into. "Look good doin' it" See the fleet Thanks for the advice and info Jesse J. It's hard to quantify the amount of sun this hull has had- but I has always been stored inside and inside it's box - never left sitting in the sun. Basically the only time it would have been in the sun was when it was running... There is no significant damage that I can see, no cracks. The only holes are the drilled and intentional for servos, antenna and drive shaft. Thanks Chris Does it have all the running hardware ? i have an two esc's that would go perfect in this boat I have an assortment of MRP motors which are probably junk compared to anything these days (MRP MS-1 times 2, MRP MS2 times 1 and MRP MS3 times 1). I wasn't planning on including them because I didn't think anyone would want/need them - but I'm happy to include them. The rudder and rudder mount are intact. I have a motor mount for single motor use. I have the installed twin motor "permformance upgrade" with the original gears which are plastic (nylon I guess). There is the installed prop shaft and sleeve and then I have an extra shaft and sleeve also. I think that about does it for any running hardware. Again there are no electronics (speed controller, servo, receiver, transmitter). Hope this helps. Chris do you still have this boat? yup, I still have the boat - no changes from above.

These should be documented so buyer knows EXACTLY what he is getting into. and I must say that video is the truth . I remember those boats never saw one run that good whooo. How much bro? beating amsoil boat. 1 race at a time !!! In my original post I thought $40 (then add an anticipated $20 shipping) might be good... JesseJ thought I should get more, but I'm not looking to "make" a ton of money on this - just want someone who's really into this stuff to get something that's difficult to find these days. Got any pics of the tunnel hull? tunnel hullI'll post some pictures of the tunnel hull in the next couple days - don't have time right now... I'll probably start a different thread and reference that thread here. Thanks mrp fountaincan u send me pics of the fountain ,i had one when i was a kid would love to buy it from u , i will give u the $40 plus shipping email me [email protected] Year and a half old thread

This motor will provide an additional 115hp and will run much easier that the original 454 which was rated at 310 - 330hp. One great thing about this boat is the size of the engine compartment. You can literally sit inside and work on the engine eye-level so changing oil, spark plugs, starter, etc is super easy.

General Q & A - 2 stage sea pump rebuild - Thought I would rebuild while the engine was out. Had no problems with the pump. Ordered the basic kit.
