I'm looking at a 99 war eagle 1648 with a 2003 Merc 25hp. Boat looks good, one small dent. Comes with gun box, small war eagle live well/storage box and a decent trolling motor. He says motor runs great. I'm going to look at it thursday. What's everyone's honest opinion on what it's worth? Also it has the low deck. Thanks, I really appreciate any help.

Do a search on Craigslist and boat trader and get some comparisons. Then you'll no more when you sea trial it.

Ive searched like crazy and cant find many used war eagle to compare it to. they are all newer 2010 and up. Hes asking 5100 and i think its high. I was thinking 4000-4200. Think thats too low? im not looking to steal it but im not looking to get ripped off either

I'd say 4500 is your cap on a rig like this, closer to 3.8-4k haggle price ... Also; HAVE A COMPRESSION TEST DONE!

Im thinking of offering 3750 and see what he says. Im not the type of guy to offer a crazy lowball offer but in this case he is way too high on his price. And its been on CL for a month now so it seems like everyone else thinks so too. I may be the guy with the guts to offer what its worth and take it home... Who knows.

Maybe so. Good luck man, hope you end up with a good rig for a good price.

That boat 15 years ago was around $4200 new. The trailer probably around $900. The Merc was maybe $3000 at the most. The trolling motor around $300. He probably bought it as a package deal and paid around $8500 give or take a little depending on seats, batteries, gas tank, etc.

Figure in 15 years of use and depreciation and I would say----
Boat is worth $1800-2000
Motor is worth $1000-1200
Trailer is worth $300
Trolling motor is worth $50-100

$3600 is my offer sight unseen with $3850 my stopping point unless the WHOLE rig is pristine. In that case, I might go $4000.
