I am wanting to sell my boat but I'm not sure the best method to do this.  Should I have a broker do listing or try and do it myself?

    I'd start with craigslist and boat trader before going to a broker.

    I agree with Stodge.  List it for reasonable price and have it ready to test ride.  If a boat is ready to go, makes the buyer that much more confident and ready to buy.  Nothing wrong with trying to sell it yourself first, then you can always try a broker. But, if you are with a broker, you will pay their fee (you're usually locked in for a time period) even if you find someone on your to buy it.

    Bought and sold 2 boats on Craigslist, the last being a 2007 246 BR! Have also sold tons of other stuff on there. Just beware of scammers, they are pretty easy to weed out tho.
