A local dealer has a 1995 690V with a 150 Mariner, hyd steering, gps, troll motor and tandem axle trailer for $13,995. Is this too much money? Does anyone have experience with this particular model boat? Thanks.

Dan, I think 13,900 isn't such a bad deal for the boat your looking at. I have a 99 model with an added kicker and that's probably worth 20,000-21,000 or so. You have the tandem axle trailer which is a plus in my book. Some guys would argue about your 150hp mariner for a couple of reasons. 1) that boat handles a 175hp max and most people like to max out the boat. 2) they might be worried about it being a mariner motor, but I'am not. If the boat looks real clean and not beat up I don't think you will get a better deal than what your describing. It's a ranger and that's always good in my book!!!

Dan,

That does not sound like to bad of a price. I had a 93 loaded with a 150EFI Mercury and the 175's could not pull away from me. Don't worry about the Horsepower. It comes down to alot of factors....Prop, amout of fuel, weight.
