Hi, i just posted my 1995 Cobalt 253 Cuddy for sale on Craigslist in Portland, OR. (Battle Ground, WA)

Only 257 hours. 502 MerCruiser with 415 HP. Captains call exhaust. Bravo III outdrive with dual stainless props.

https://portland.craigslist.org/clk/boa ... 73785.html

NADA list's average price with options at $20,500. Low at $18,500. Boat is in excellent condition but i priced it low to get it sold. I have an offer now from a potential local buyer but he has not confirmed purchase yet, so it's still available!

She didn't sell with the lookers you had? It looks like a good boat. Good luck. What's next?

Great looking . It has a stove option.. very nice. Suprised no one up there’s jumped on it. Especially with a 502

The market seems interested but a little soft being the end of the season. Rain last weekend didn't help. The first offer got the thumbs down from the wife. Decided the cuddy was too small. The second interested decided the boat was too big. The third and fourth don't have the money lined up yet. Overwhelming response as to how nice the boat is: "The nicest condition for a boat of this vintage that I've seen." -from one of the guys who stopped by.

I even got a cold call from a guy in the Seattle area who just wanted to chat about how nice it was as he had just bought a 253 in worse condition for about the same $. He suggested I list it up there. So I did today!

Good luck. I just don't know anyone that wants a cuddly right now.

Looks like listing it in Seattle was the key! Got a full price offer over the phone this morning. Coming to pick it up this weekend.
