Based upon your description, seems to be a nice boat. Good engine/outdrive, low hours, roomy boat, enclosed head compartment, etc.
I am sure rpengr will chime in because he is a very knowledgeable 240 owner...
As far as the values go, it seems that similar age bow riders in this size range hold their value better than cuddy cabin boats. A larger bow rider with enclosed head is a great day boat, you have more seating up front so people can spread out and the head, just in case.

Yes it is in great shape, just not sure on the price. I don’t want buyer remorse after I realize I overpaid.

I sold our 97 245 Sundowner with 5.7 GSI/SX for around $14k. Fiberglass floor was optional until around 2000 or so.
It took a while to sell our Sundowner, cuddy boats don't seem to sell as quick but if someone wants a cuddy the options are limited and we got what we wanted for price.
Yes I would have to agree, the market for Cuddys isn’t strong, but I’m just surprised as mine has ever option, EFI, DUO Props, Camper top, table, upgraded wheel on the trailer, everything. I’m more surprised that I haven’t even had one single phone call on it. I will just have to hold out for a few more weeks before I lower the price. I refuse to give it away though as I don’t really need to sell it, but then again I do not need two boats in the driveway.

If you haven't already, be sure to check out the archived catalogs and "fast facts":
http://www.fourwinns.com/customer-service-catalogs.aspxLike 97_245_sd said, the fiberglass floors were optional on the 240 at that time.
Thank you, I have seen the catalogs, but I just wasn’t sure if there was a way to tell or not. The boat doesn’t have snap in carpet so it makes it a little harder to detect if it has fiberglass or not.
