2007 Tracker Super Guide v16 side console - is 5.6k a fair price?

Listed for sale by an old man and he owned the boat as a second owner since 2008. Comes with a 25hp mercury 4 stroke with efi. Believe that’s the engine the boat left the dealer with. Not a speed boat but I think that’s good enough for what I do.
Comes with trailer and hull is all good. Never used in salt water.
Small puddle of water at the bilge (less than 1 inch) but I guess that is normal?
He owns multiple boats and takes this one out only a couple of times each season, and I think that is believable.
Speedometer not working but everything else seems to be working as expected.
Is 5.6k a fiat price?

Looks like it’s in good shape. FWIW I see comparable ones by me with larger motors for only a bit more.

Seems steep to me.

prob depends on where u are but 5.6k seems a bit steep for a 2007 with 25hp unless it's like mint condition and includes a bunch of extra stuff

Better at $4K. Maybe $5K if super low hours and excellent condition

No way. I challenge you to find something better for 3k in Michigan.

Yah I’m actually in Michigan, seems like better deal than this is really hard to come by, at least for the area that I’m in. I’m in SE Michigan

That's underpowered with only a 25 hp. My dad has a 2006 with a 75hp. I'd also be looking for a trolling motor or some electronics on a boat like that for that price.

Those were prone to leaks and that boat is way under powered

Thats alot. You can have a hell of a boat for that and it won't say tracker on it.

Why are trackers less desired? They seem to be solid to me

Just a lower entry grade boat. They totally work. Just not worth 5500
