You may not get alot of response here. Commander doesnt seem to rate very high on this board. I have one and love it. But a few on here have been treated badly by them so now....????
Good luck, i wish i still needed a boat,. yours looks sweet

I agree...
If the boat is in tip top shape, I think 11k-12k is what I'd ask since 14K seems to be the start for openbows.....

You gotta be shittin me. Dude, don't be a dick.
Anyway, Mr. Sandstorm, you should be able to get 8 or 9k for that boat. Depending on condition and market you might get more.

So what caused all the negativity towards Commanders? Can anyone fill me in?

How much time you got? lol
Do some research on the boards, try a search or what have you. Basically the boats are good and the big problems have been with Customer service issues and personalities. :idea:
Ahhell's commander is a nice boat and well built, so unfortunately a good boat with a stygma attached to it.

[tkeller]

Thanks. I just didn't get it... the boat looks sweet.

[Ziggy]

I sold my last one rather quick. I had it 10 years, kept it in great shape like yours and sold it for nearly what I paid.
Just have patience, a good boat will bring you a buyer.

[mirvin]

Also, I don't think there is any problem with Commanders PAST REPUTATION. Meaning their older boats are still worth buying. The issues with Commanders have been recent, and as explained above, more of a customer service issue.
mirvin :cool:

[HCS]

I like the idea of selling it as a 2005 model. You could get more for it.
No has to know it was a demo boat.

[sandstorm]

Well I appricate all the nice comments, however to comment on a few people that seem to have more money than I, My boat isnt much but it is paid for. Im now moving up to a bigger boat and my pride and joy will have to go. It is in great shape interior is in good shape no rips but some wear. Anyhow thanks for the 2 cent yall.

Now you have my curiosity...why did you have to replace the stringers in an '89? If it was just to strentghen them, then ok. But if you had to replace because of rotting....well, that doesn't make Commander look good, does it?? :confused: :confused:

Maybe someone owned it before him and left it full of water all winter...chit happens like that ya know :rolleyes:

[sandstorm]

Well The whole stringers were rotten but there were still 1/2 inch glass around them but I couldnt drive it knowuing it so I paid out the ass to get it done.

I just sold my '93 Commander Hawk 22.5 LX on the Boattrader.com. Got lots of calls the first week it ran. First guy to look at it bought it. I asked $17k and got $16k. If you look in nadaguides.com and check your book value you'll just sh*t. They tend to lowball west coast customs. Mine booked at only $12k and I knew that just had to be a joke - even if it was a dreaded Commander. The callers I had didn't balk at the price, which was set comparable to similar year Ultra's, etc., I saw on the trader site.
I must admit, contrary to the Commander rep on ***boat strings, I loved the boat and never had any problems with it. Though I never had to go back to Sy and the Commander gang to experience the substandard service I keep hearing about. I dragged that sucker out to Parker and it stayed there for the 11 years I had it.
