What’s a Daytona mini worth?

[coolchange]

What’s a 12’ Daytona worth? I have no clue anymore.
Virtually 0 hrs in the last 25 years. 50 hp merc. Power trim. New interior. Bimini. Cover. On Hensley tandem trailer with scaled golf cart wheels stainless fenders.
I can’t see over 5k but the trailer was like 3500? These little boats are cool ( I had a 12’ Crusader) but seems numbers are all over.

I am VERY interested

Sounds kool! @Mini Kat to the courtesy phone please.

Ok. We’re talking about dragging it out and doing all the rubber etc. has issue with a wheel a tire jockey broke that we are going to rectify. This would easily be the nicest original gel boats out there. But finding comps is virtually impossible.

It’s worth what someone will pay IMO

Why don't you post some pics of it?

It’s buried in the garage. We were covering boats yesterday for the rain. And started talking that now is the time to get it out and change impeller hoses etc for the season. He’s also got a Brummet he might sell.

 

[Orange Juice]

Probably price it similar to a Seadoo boat.

 

[NicPaus]

I am a buyer as well. But not trying to get in front of lakepal.

@rivergames could give a good idea on value he has 2.

My River neighbor has a 12' crusader I tried to buy it. They moved it out from under the cover. Tarp blew off and it's now more of a project than it's worth. I figured it needs 12-15k to be worth 8k.

It wouldn’t be painted white Deltron with a gray tweed interior would it? They didn’t make a lot of those.

Don’t trouble for me. Just thought it could be mine.
I’ll see if we can uncover the one we’re doing next weekend.

I have a mini Daytona that has fresh all white gel, Merc 150 that is perfect.. just needs to be rigged.

I’d sell it just to make room because I have too many projects

 

[rivergames]

A Clean running 12' Daytona is prob worth anywhere from $7K - $12K

Oh I’m sure they want it. They would probably kill themselves in it. Money talks and they’re pretty quite.

I’ll tell him.

 

[coolchange]

Found a pic online of it. Reminded me the trailer has chrome removable tongue, recessed lights, removable guidons. I think there’s at least two covers for it. I think Carson did some work, putting knees on the transom to beef it up. Bunch of crap it’s starting to come back to me. sure has a bitchin seat and carpet.

I have a 14’ Daytona I bought off @white tortilla which has a 75 Tohatsu.

Runs 45mph all day long and will comfortably haul you, your wife, dog, kid and a cooler.

One the best boats I’ve ever owned. Now my nephews have it.

If I had to put a price it would be $5k but it’s not pristine by any means.

 

[warpt71]

A few more to get the party started!!!!!!!!!!

Someone has to clue me in on the obsession with the mini boats. I dont get it?

One of my 12' Daytonas that I am rebuilding.

I thought your white one was around 16’? How big is it and what would you want for it?

Ours is a 16. I believe the Daytona were either 10 or 16

I’d list that one for $15k, it’s a nice little boat. I think it used to sit on 23rd and 2nd by my old house, that was early 2000’s if memory serves.

 

[lake p.a.l.]

I apologize. I thought it was a cat hull, not a V.
Gorgeous boat. I want a mini cat hull.
Hope it all works out for you.

My dad has one... bought it back in the mid 80s from a buddy, such a fun boat. As a teen I drove the SHIT out it, most the time running it out of gas and having to find somebody to tow my ass back, hahaha. In 1990 ( my senior year of HS, Im now 52...) my dad decided that the "set up" was wrong and the helm needed to be moved forward 6".... He called me one night and told me to swing by his house after school, he wanted to show me something. I show up, he opens the garage and he cut 6" out of the deck to slide the whole dash/helm 6" forward... I was PISSED!!! Told him this boat will NEVER see water again... and it hasn't !!! Its sitting in his storage unit at the river now totally gutted with the dash slid forward and never glassed back together, but he is "going to get around to glassing it" at 84 yrs old, hahaha. I thought about grabbing it a few years ago and redoing it but Shockwave Bob told me it and would cost too much and just find a used one. Hahaha.

Not an Eliminator but, I suspect a $2500-2700 offer might but it..

The mini Daytonas aren’t eliminators they were built by sundown marine
