Thats a 3cyl yamaha. Worth a good bit more than any motor of that age. It is a 2001 though, but looks freshly repainted. Id say between $7-8k. Ive got an '01 with a 40, not near that "clean" and I wouldnt take much less than $5500-$6500.

Thanks for the response. Not mine, just looking around to replace my stick steer 1754 war eagle. And yeah, guy says painted in the last month. Looks good on a trailer, but I'm guessing it would show up like a dark blob on the water.

I think duckman is right on the money. I bought an 07 18' aluminum center console w/ 90hp yamaha, trolling motor, ect,ect this year for 9K. I did ALOT of research before my purchase and that 9k was a good price for what I got.

Guy is asking $8,500 for the Alumacraft. Found this one for $7800.

5ft Wide X 18ft Long Aluminum Boat
2004 Model with 90-HP Yamaha Motor
Trolling Motor, Hummingbird Graph, 2 Batteries, New Bilge Pump
Center Console, Galvanized Salt Water Trailer
Starts & Runs Good, Stored in a barn and occasionally used


While the camo looks cool and all, I don't really see myself shooting from a center console very much. Mostly just a "get-there-and-back" boat that has the option to hit the LA marsh every now and then.

Second boat is a better buy. 3 cyl yamahas are great motors. You will want the 18'. That 16 is crowded with 3 people in it. A paint job is $400 and you can get nat gear or something else. Metro Camo in Arkansas is where mine will be going.

+1000 on the 18'


I had a 1648 and liked it but I LOVE my 18' center console. Mine will be going to Bert Flemming for a blind build soon
