Just curious what you would pay if you were in the market. Thinking about either dropping my price way down or holding it till spring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller keithh2oskier Posted October 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted October 1, 2019 I am not sure you could drop the price enough for me to get that color. I think its a love it or hate it thing but unfortunately if I had to guess your going to reduce your market by a significant percentage with that color scheme.

Baller DCook Posted October 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted October 1, 2019 Unfortunately, I agree with Keith. I am in the market, and today was actually the first time I read through specs on this boat to realize this has everything I want. But the color has been a non-starter. I also imagine navy seats get super hot in the sun. Maybe you can find a die hard U of Michigan fan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller markchilcutt Posted October 1, 2019 Author Baller Share Posted October 1, 2019 @DCook I thought the same thing but the MC Cool Feel is the real deal. Doesn't get hot like you would think. I had a Malibu with a light gray interior piece that felt like it was burning your skin when you sat on it. This stuff is way better than traditional interior.

Baller swc5150 Posted October 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted October 1, 2019 I'll second how great cool feel vinyl is. I have a hunch it'll become the new norm, like seadek taking over carpet. Selling a unique color boat is tough...I've been there (once!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller skimtb Posted October 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted October 1, 2019 Perfect color for @bananaron ! Other than him, I would think you can either drop price until someone says “ok I can like that or deal with it”, or keep price up and wait for the person that wants it. It’s a decent price for a MC tower boat with some warranty left. Does it have a ski rack or back seats? Don’t see either mentioned or pics.

Baller markchilcutt Posted October 1, 2019 Author Baller Share Posted October 1, 2019 @skimtb no rear seats or ski racks. Considering a vinyl wrap with stars and strips incorporated or like you said just need to be patient. In person the colors really look good but I get it.

Baller thager Posted October 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted October 1, 2019 I have no problem with the colors, my SN 02 has similar. Not a fan of the pull I get behind the MC or how they drive. Just me I guess. Therefore, I am out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller LoopSki Posted October 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted October 1, 2019 lack of bow or rear seats is what made me buy a new Prostar. It was like pulling teeth to get a price and time frame to get them. seemed like all prostars I was looking at were either missing the front, the rear of both sets of seats. it sounded like a great concept that a promo boat owner could order the boat barebones and then the next buyer can add whatever he wanted. however it's not so easy to do so.

Baller Cent Posted October 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted October 1, 2019 I could handle the colors. Not a fan of towers. Prefer Biminis so would need some discount if looking which I am not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Chef23 Posted October 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted October 1, 2019 Personally I like the color but you will rule some people out. If I was in the market for a new boat I would try to steal it from you. I think you may need to drop the price to get some action. I would think at 52.5 it would move.

Gold Member Than_Bogan Posted October 1, 2019 Gold Member Share Posted October 1, 2019 Man I am hilariously out of this market right now. I don't hate the colors, but I was thinking I'd be willing to pay around $38k for it. Guess I'll be keeping my boat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller escmanaze Posted October 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted October 1, 2019 Correct me if I'm wrong Mark, but I think a Michigan fan is going to be really disappointed to find out that the "yellow" is actually quite green. As I understand it, this is much more of a "Seahawks" boat than a Wolverine boat. I actually think the color scheme is really pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller markchilcutt Posted October 1, 2019 Author Baller Share Posted October 1, 2019 @escmanaze Definitely no green to it. Some of the photos make it look greenish but its definitely bright yellow. Unfortunately the photos are making it hard to sell. The colors are a departure from the norm for sure. Everyone including myself are so used to seeing the same old colors (White, black, red, blue, silver, gray, Orange lol @Horton) over and over again on a 3 event boat that when you initially see these colors the majority of people in this market turn away. I was hesitant seeing the photos (thinking is that a greenish yellow?) but still bought it sight unseen. Once it arrived at my house I instantly feel in love. If this boat had a 6.0 or 6.2 in it it wouldn't be going anywhere. The Cool Feel interior, decadence flooring and heated seats may be the nicest features about this boat.

Baller Cnewbert Posted October 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted October 1, 2019 I think your price is already very competitive compared to the asking prices for similar boats on SIA. But then, many of those boats have been for sale for months and apparently haven't sold yet, which says a lot about how realistic those asking prices are. I think the 2020 Prostars with the 6.0L engine may drive the price for 5.7s down a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Bill22 Posted October 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted October 1, 2019 +1 for stay cool material, you have to feel it to believe it. TBS had that black prostar in ‘18. I was amazed it didn’t get hot. I love the single color blue interior. Not a fan of bright yellow, if it was standard yellow it would be sold by now. @LoopSki I heard the bow seats are standard equipment now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller skimtb Posted October 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted October 1, 2019 How much is a wrap? If your gonna do that, just discount the boat and move on.

Baller swc5150 Posted October 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted October 1, 2019 Yellow and blue is much better than the gray/teal/pink Prostar 205 we were stuck with back in the day, after that 15 minutes of cool was up. Nothing but blue, red or black for this guy from then on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller mmskiboat Posted October 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted October 1, 2019 Are you seeing the other boats moving? Price will always move something for sale as someone else can just re post it and wait for the buyer. I do not mind the colors but not having rear seats would have been an issue fo us.

Baller Brady Posted October 2, 2019 Baller Share Posted October 2, 2019 @markchilcutt call me, I may be interested in it. As far as the color, it’s a ProStar....anyone who don’t like it can ski behind someone else’s boat....and it matches me...people either love me or hate me and like the boat, I could give a rats arse what they think. I would definitely not pay for shipping however....you would have to pay for shipping to sandy!! Just sayin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
