Bay boat pricing guides

Posted by sonoma8 on 5/20/25 at 8:46 am
Who does the OB refer to when it comes to pricing a bay boat to sell? I have a 2012 Skeeter ZX22 Bay with a 225 Yamaha for reference. Currently has 500 hrs on it. Im guessing JD Power is the only reference for pricing available?
Im finally even, I cant sell now :lol:

Ive considered renting my place out, but I have a hard time letting some jackass use my place and trash it.
Thats the issue…Id like a diesel to pull a 24’ -25’boat without issues. I cant stand that constant downshifting when driving down that POS Hwy 90. Its 90% usage will be a daily driver to work that is 40mi round trip.

I know its frowned upon because its not technically “working” the diesel, but it also has better mpg and longevity that the compared 5.3L gasser. The 6.2L just had a stop sale so Im alittle worried about those engines now.

I am up for any truck honestly, but it seems most of them have their own issues and there is no simple answer. Coming from an F250, I just prefer the towing capabilities when I need it.
Im in at the same. Im holding for now,

Whats the OB’s thoughts on these? Have read that they pull a decent amount and get good mpg, but nothing really negative that I can find. Anyone have any personal experience with these engines?

I was out of water bottles last weekend so I cut up one of those thick pool noodles in about 12” pieces and used them the same way. Worked just as good.

Considering selling it and I love that truck, but I just have a feeling it will continue to get worse the longer I delay. For the amount of time I actually use the truck, I just dont see the value in keeping it and letting it decline further in value.

Thats about what this is, maybe like teaspoon each spot I park. Its coming from above the lower oil pan, but the lower oil pan is covered in oil too. Like its been going on for a while which makes me confused because Ive never seen oil leaks before
