BoatVerdict market snapshot
What "time listed" is and is not. We count from the day the seller posted the ad to the sweep that found it gone. An ad can end because the boat sold, because the seller gave up, or because the classifieds site expired the post on its own schedule. So read 2 days as how long a 175 TXW sits for sale, not as a time-to-sale. Nobody in this market can give you a real one: US used-boat sales are not publicly recorded. Ads that were already gone the first time we could see a whole regional board are left out of this figure, because we know they left but not when.
These are asking prices. No free or public source publishes US used-boat transaction prices, so nobody — us included — can honestly show you what these boats sold for. What we can show you is what 22 sellers are asking, which is the number you are actually negotiating against.
22 priced listings across 9 states. Enough for a range, not enough to be precise about any single year.
Method: Asking prices from active listings, de-duplicated so a re-posted boat counts once (67 raw listings collapsed to 22 distinct boats). Quartiles, not averages, so one outlier cannot move the band. Rounded to $500.
Coverage: Model years 2008–2025, 9 states, 15 metro areas. New-boat listings excluded.

The BoatVerdict take
- BoatVerdict listing data
Pricing is tight: the middle half of listings sits between $12,000 and $15,000, only a 1.3x spread. A boat asking well outside that band needs a reason, and "it is loaded" is usually not enough of one.
- Recall (USCG/CPSC)
6 federal recall campaigns on file touch this builder. Check the specific hull against the recall list below before you put money down; remedies are free but only if the work was actually done.
Each point is tagged with the evidence behind it. Nothing here is a claim we cannot trace back to a counted listing, a federal record, or a named analyst judgement.

The 14 most recently seen of 14 distinct boats. These are asking prices, not sale prices: no free source publishes US used-boat sale prices. A boat re-posted several times counts once, at its latest ask. "Taken down" means the ad disappeared; that can be a sale, a seller who gave up, or an expired post.
Bass Tracker recalls and accident record
Of 429Bass Tracker boats in USCG accident records: fire or explosion 1%, flooding or swamping 12%, capsizing 8%, total loss 6%, at least one death 21%.

These numbers are for the builder, not this model. Check the specific hull with a HIN lookup for recalls and reported accidents.

Engines we actually see on the 175 TXW
- Mercury Verado / V8 FourStroke (250–400)
Modern Mercury V8/V10 FourStroke and supercharged Verado are strong, smooth, and well-supported, a clear step up from the OptiMax era. Slightly behind Yamaha on resale trust but closing fast, and often better integrated (joystick, digital throttle).
Service reality: 100-hour service; supercharged Verado adds the supercharger oil interval. Check for corroded battery cables and the SmartCraft harness on saltwater boats.

What to inspect on a used Bass Tracker 175 TXW
- Mercury Verado / V8 FourStroke (250–400): 100-hour service; supercharged Verado adds the supercharger oil interval. Check for corroded battery cables and the SmartCraft harness on saltwater boats. Seen on 1 of the 22 175 TXW listings we track.
- Get the hour meter reading and divide by the boat's age. Above 150 hours a year is heavy use for a Mercury Verado / V8 FourStroke (250–400). Threshold from BoatVerdict's engine-family profile for Mercury Verado / V8 FourStroke (250–400).
- Assume saltwater service unless the seller can prove otherwise: pull the engine cowling and look at the powerhead, check trim-cylinder rams for pitting, and open the battery and fuse boxes for green corrosion. 68% of the listings we observed for this model are in coastal states.
This list is specific to this model: analyst items for the hull, plus items driven by the engines and the regions we actually observe on 175 TXW listings. It is not a generic pre-purchase checklist, and it does not replace a surveyor.
What a 175 TXW costs to own
$1,750 – $4,500 per year
- 17 ft hull, the median observed length for this model
- Saltwater berth, based on where most listings we see are located (AL)
- Includes insurance, storage, routine service, fuel at moderate seasonal use, and a reserve for wear items
- Excludes loan payments, major engine replacement, and refit work
This is a modelled band, not observed spend. Real cost swings hard on where you keep the boat and how much you use it.
Method: The same ownership-cost model BoatVerdict's paid Deal Report uses: boat class and length set the base band, then saltwater berth and size adjust it.
