Hobies tend to hold their value well. Price varies regionally and depends on condition, accessories, time of year, etc. etc. Learn how to read the serial # so you can verify the actual year model. The 2009 and up models have some worthwhile additions -- more robust V-2 Drives and "Click N Go " Drive inserts. If shopping for a 2008 or older, learn how to inspect the "cam columns" for cracks -- they are repairable. Stay away from boats that are not complete (seat, Drive, paddle, functioning rudder, etc.) Use the search feature here to learn more about these things. Welcome to the forum!
