it's seems to me that the nimble 20 is not too prevalent in the used boat market. i'm not sure how many were produced but they don't come up for sale very often. being so limited as it seems i would think that circumstance should drive the price up. though perhaps the reason for that not actually happening is historical seller undervaluation. someone down south seeking a quick sale perhaps or maybe they were just unaware of the nimbles value, and they ask for $8000 or so and this sets the price trend. to me, it's a bit foolish. try building one of these for under $30,000 today. impossible. someone up north or out west who is aware of this fact and in love with the nimbles charm, quality, and unique characteristics would certainly pay a price more in line with the nimbles real value. not that it's my business, just seems to me you're asking atleast $4000 or $6000 less than you should.
