Don't let anyone kid you. Your boat is worth more than $1500. I can't say what the market is in the Bahamas, but here in Ohio you likely could get 3000 to $4000 U.S. for all your gear. Anywhere you are, you will get more if you part it out. For instance, you could sell the Radial rig separately.
i realize the importance of being positive on this site, but i feel we should also be realistic. after selling a mint, loaded 2005 last year for $4000 by following the current scale based on the prevailing market( yes it was a forced sale but it was a fair deal and a bargain for the buyer). i would like to see what US area is selling '98 era boats for $3-4000, regardless of how loaded the package. Pictures would have been needed for a better estimate. in the Bahamas you could command that price maybe due to shipping and the scarcity of boats. just my opinion.
Folks are mentioning the bahamas, and I'm not sure why. I don't see anything in the post or user profile that indicates that.
