BoatVerdict market snapshot
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 42 sellers are asking, which is the number you are actually negotiating against.
37 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 (162 raw listings collapsed to 42 distinct boats). Quartiles, not averages, so one outlier cannot move the band. Rounded to $500.
Coverage: Model years 2003–2024, 9 states, 17 metro areas. New-boat listings excluded.

The BoatVerdict take
- BoatVerdict listing data
Between the 2003 ($23,000 median) and the 2019 ($98,000 median) asking prices fall about 9% a year. The steepest part of that curve is behind any boat more than five years old, which is where the value sits.
- Recall (USCG/CPSC)
4 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.

Asking prices from active listings we observed, not sold prices. No public source publishes US used-boat transaction prices; anyone showing you "sold" data for this market is estimating it. Years with fewer than 3 priced listings show the count only.
Method: Median and quartiles per model year, computed only where at least 3 priced listings exist for that year.

Recalls affecting North River
4 federal recall campaigns on file. Recalls are issued against hull-identification ranges, so a campaign listed here may or may not cover the specific boat you are looking at — check the HIN. Remedies are free from the builder, but only if the work was actually performed, and there is no central database that proves it was.

Engines we actually see on the Seahawk
- Yamaha 4-stroke outboard (F70–F300)
The benchmark for outboard reliability and resale. F150 and F300 routinely run 2,000+ hours with routine service. Top-tier buyer trust — a Yamaha-powered hull sells faster than the same boat on any other brand.
Service reality: 100-hour service intervals; 10-year/1,000-hour anode and water-pump attention. Saltwater units: check the bus bar and starter solenoid behind the powerhead for corrosion.

What to inspect on a used North River Seahawk
- Yamaha 4-stroke outboard (F70–F300): 100-hour service intervals; 10-year/1,000-hour anode and water-pump attention. Saltwater units: check the bus bar and starter solenoid behind the powerhead for corrosion. Seen on 2 of the 42 Seahawk 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 Yamaha 4-stroke outboard (F70–F300). Threshold from BoatVerdict's engine-family profile for Yamaha 4-stroke outboard (F70–F300).
- 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. 90% of the listings we observed for this model are in coastal states.
- On the older hulls, core moisture is the deal-breaker: sound the transom and the deck with a plastic mallet, and treat any soft or dull-sounding area as a survey-stopper rather than a bargaining chip. We observe listings back to 2003, so boats over 23 years old are actively traded in this model.
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 Seahawk listings. It is not a generic pre-purchase checklist, and it does not replace a surveyor.
What a Seahawk costs to own
$3,750 – $10k per year
- 22 ft hull, the median observed length for this model
- Saltwater berth, based on where most listings we see are located (OR)
- 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.
