Do you have to give a contender away? Dropped price on mine because im in a bind and nobody wants one???
pictures sell boats… also, details. your ads have neither. people won’t take you seriously if you can’t take 15 minutes of effort to sell a $30k+ item.
I will be glad to email pictures to anybody thats interested
Contender 25 open “HIGH COTTON”
offshore boats with 2 stroke motors are a tough sell. you really need to jazz up your ad with pics, performance data including fully loaded cruising speed and fuel mileage etc.
not everybody knows how a 25 open is equipped so that would also be good info.
does it come with updated electronics? trailer? etc etc etc.

I will be glad to help!

If you don’t have the time to post an informative ad then people just move on to the next boat. Here is my ad for different brand boat. It took 21 days to sell of which I had been talking to the buyer for 5 of them. http://www.thehulltruth.com/boats-sale-wanted/301781-sold-2008-2360-sailfish-cc-w-f150s-135hrs-flawless-59-500-sold.html
I spent time on my ad…even made a video.
Well good for you!

I have seen your ad’s. My personal opinion is the market just sucks right now. My first reaction is people want 4 strokes or hpdi’s, but the reality is that people who can really afford a contender are not that concerned about gas prices. Depending on how many trips you actually make offshore the price offset of newer technology motors may take a long time to make up in gas savings alone.
Good luck with the sale, From what I have seen on the market it is priced ok.
I would try the hull truth if you want to move it yourself. You have to pay to advertise on there, take lots of pics and fill the ad with as much info as possible.

Like he said why not post a pic of the rig?
Been wondering for years why would someone post a boat for sale w/o pics.
It’s always the first question after the ad is posted…
Yours is the 1999?
Ox s?
In today’s market those are throw aways. I do not mean to hurt your feelings but you need to get real regarding price and how you market your boat. What is the haul worth and take it from there.
