CU_SKI Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 The Clemson Ski Team is selling their 2017 Mastercraft Prostar. We have our 2019 boat on the lift so now its time for the 2017 to find a new home. The school requires us to sell the boat through the Gov Deals auction site. This is an amazing opportunity to get a boat this new for a price lower than you would find anywhere else. Please check out the posting at the link above and feel free to ask any questions about the boat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CU_SKI Posted April 1, 2019 Author Share Posted April 1, 2019 This auction closes tomorrow 4/2 3:00 PM ET The current bid is only $31,400. You will not find a 2 year old boat for anywhere close to this price anywhere else. If you are looking at getting a new boat but do not want to spend new boat prices, this is for you.

Baller skimtb Posted April 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted April 1, 2019 Will be interesting to see where this ends up. What is the “damage” on the right side? Good luck to you and team on sale, assume to get $$ for next one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ForrestGump Posted April 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted April 1, 2019 @skimtb Looks like a scratch in gell coat. Pretty easily fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CU_SKI Posted April 1, 2019 Author Share Posted April 1, 2019 @skimtb When putting in the boat, the trailer was put in too deep and the boat scratched against the top of a guide poll. The damage is just a gel coat scratch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller jcamp Posted April 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted April 1, 2019 That scratch looks terrible. The boat is completely totaled. Do not bid on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller KRoundy Posted April 2, 2019 Baller Share Posted April 2, 2019 That is a screaming good deal right now. Does it have any options? It looks pretty bare-bones. No bow cover, no carpet, etc... Bimini? Heater? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller skimtb Posted April 2, 2019 Baller Share Posted April 2, 2019 Only Options appear to be Stereo and left side ski rack. And a cover... good price for basic ski tug right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CU_SKI Posted April 2, 2019 Author Share Posted April 2, 2019 @KRoundy it does not have a bimini or heater. Options include Fusion stereo, port side ski racks, PTM edge VR-100 mirror, cover, trailer with spare tire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller RAWSki Posted April 2, 2019 Baller Share Posted April 2, 2019 It seemed to sell for just about the right price all things considered. Just shy of $50K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller DavidN Posted April 2, 2019 Baller Share Posted April 2, 2019 Slightly above $53k, if you add the 7.5% sales tax. Good for the Clemson Ski Team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller RAWSki Posted April 3, 2019 Baller Share Posted April 3, 2019 There seems to be a sales tax and a service fee already included included? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Horton Posted April 3, 2019 Administrators Share Posted April 3, 2019 Ignoring the reality of the sales tax - 50k for a 2 year old 620 hr ProStar strikes me as close to fair market value. ($43,800 is stupid cheap but that is not what the real cost out the door was.) As I'm contemplating if the price is a little low or little high I'm wondering if anybody has ever tried to chart how the value of any boat decreases per 100 hours? If you told me you got a 300 hr base ProStar for 57k I would call that plausible but a very good deal.

Baller swc5150 Posted April 3, 2019 Baller Share Posted April 3, 2019 Conversely, I've been wondering the value of my 26 hour '15 Prostar, that also has 3 years of warranty remaining. What are these factors worth in the market. I'm struggling with the idea of perhaps selling it, for the obvious reason that it spends its life sitting in my garage. It's never even spent a night AT the lake, let alone in the lake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller_ The_MS Posted April 3, 2019 Baller_ Share Posted April 3, 2019 Why the tax on Private sale? Don’t you pay the taxes in your own state when you register? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Lars Posted April 3, 2019 Baller Share Posted April 3, 2019 @MS even private party auto sales in MN have sales tax added when you go to transfer the title. A little bogus since the PO already paid sales tax when they bought it. Guessing its the same in SC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller oldjeep Posted April 3, 2019 Baller Share Posted April 3, 2019 @Lars - cars do, but private party boat sales do not. One of the neat things about MN law. It has to do with the DNR not being a taxing authority, so only used boats bought at a dealer pay any sales tax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller skimtb Posted April 3, 2019 Baller Share Posted April 3, 2019 Same in MI. Pay at registration. New or used (although my experience is all used, including out of state). If the same boat sold every year, they would keep getting 6% each year as is slowly decreases value. Seems a bit off when you think about it.... our roads should be better! Edit- I think I get @MS question better now. If you are not keeping it in state, you shouldn’t have to pay tax. That would be real bad, pay it there then pay full tax in your home state too.

Baller swc5150 Posted April 3, 2019 Baller Share Posted April 3, 2019 @Horton it'll take me 2 more years to add 17 hours at my current rate. But every time I drive it, it feels like the 1st time all over again:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller ForrestGump Posted April 3, 2019 Baller Share Posted April 3, 2019 My 175lb English Mastiff decided he was going to play with a snapping turtle in the pond behind our subdivision. Let's just say that the snapping turtle won. Our fat, smelly English Bulldog then laughed at him all the way home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller aupatking Posted April 4, 2019 Baller Share Posted April 4, 2019 this thread went from a boat, to taxes, now to turtles. @Horton I’m looking for a way to get back to Bako to help you add some hours. Closest I’ve got right now is Hollywood in a couple weeks. We bought my old 14 Prostar and hung 475 hours on it in 3 years. It was worth every hour of depreciation too!
