Experts please weigh in!
 

My husband is drooling over this Mariah boat and ready to purchase it. We live in Phoenix, AZ. This boat is priced $19,500. Seems high to me, but my husband insists all the upgrades make it worth the value. Can I please get some insight from experts before I have a new boat for which we overpaid.

First thing I'll tell you is to read this buying guide...

Second... I saw that one advertised in the Facebook Mariah Boat Owners Group and it looks to be a well maintained beauty

Info from their ad:

FOR SALE: Posting first here because we LOVE Mariah boat owners!
We have owned this amazing family fun boat for 20 years without any major repairs. Regular yearly maintenance done, exterior was buffed and ceramic waxed before storage fall 2020. You can see your reflection! Seriously- We have added Tower, Tower speakers, & Bimini, and SeaDek flooring in 2016, swim deck added in 2019. New upholstery added on interior rails and bench 2020.
Don't miss this amazing '95 Talari Z240 that always gets the second glance at the lake
√ Mercruiser 454 power
√ Corsa Captains call thru hull exhaust
√ Mercruiser Bravo III outdrive with dual stainless props
√ Custom swim platform with drop down ladder and storage access
√ Samson Sports Wakeboard tower with Sunbrella Bimini cover, LED lights and 2 stainless Wakeboard forks
√ Upgraded Audio system Including 2 new amplifiers, 8 in boat speakers and 2 large tower speakers
Located in Mesa, AZ - $19,500 is a steal for this beauty!


The Z240 was a really popular model for Mariah as it just seems to hit that sweet spot in size, amenities & performance. Its a really nice Mariah but I think he'll come down just a little bit. Maybe offer in the $18k - $18.5k range and see where it leads?
