I woild like to start by saying this boat is an absolute blast to drive. I haven’t been able to find a boat that can corner at high rates of speed, maneuver the switchbacks in our creeks and run in just enough water to get the prop wet… if you have ever driven one with the right horsepower… you know.
I have been blessed with a wife and kids and generally not allowed to go out in a boat without them. So my little High Tide just sits… I am trying to get an idea about the demand and what its worth. The 40 yamaha has less than 250hrs on it and is in top working order. Hydraulic jack plate, sounder, galvanized trailer, etc. Let me know what you think.

Sweet, used to have one with the short transom in that would swamp you if you stopped too quickly, but was a blast to run! The newer ones with the tall transom like you have are much better.
Nice looking little boat. I learned to drive a boat in that same model with a 50 mercury on the back. I know what you mean about running creeks. That thing would fly when running to duck hunting spots.
That’s a nice clean setup that you have taken care of. I would think $4500 would be in the ballpark on that.
It’s hard to tell actual condition from pictures, but just from looking I agree with Geronimo. I don’t think much less than 4K, probably not more than 5K. Nice rig.

He was saying “take it or leave it” . The boat is 01 model. I was thinking of listing it for 5. I am going to recarpet the bunks and clean a few things, then list it. Anyone interested let me know.
