Used Stingray Boats for Sale: Prices, Models & 2026 Values
Stingray Boats has been built by one family in Hartsville, South Carolina since 1979, which makes it a rarity in an industry of conglomerates. The company builds sport boats — bowriders, deck boats and small cuddy cabins from 18 to 25 feet — on its own Z-plane hull design, which it markets on speed and fuel economy, and it has kept its prices below the big-brand equivalents for four decades.
The used market reflects that positioning: a Stingray sells for less than a comparable Sea Ray or Chaparral, the fit and finish is honest rather than lavish, and the boats are simple to own. Older models are sterndrive (MerCruiser or Volvo Penta); newer ones increasingly carry outboards. For a buyer who wants a clean family bowrider without paying for a badge, Stingray is worth a serious look.

View detailsBuying a used Stingray: what to check
- On sterndrive models, ask for outdrive service history (bellows, gimbal bearing, impeller) and inspect the manifolds if the boat saw salt
- Walk the floor and check the ski locker and bilge for soft spots or standing water
- Check the upholstery and snap-in carpet; Stingray interiors are decent but age faster than premium brands in the sun
- Confirm the trailer is included and roadworthy — many Stingrays were sold as packages and the trailer is a meaningful share of the price
Frequently asked questions
How much is a used Stingray boat worth?
Compact 180–192 bowriders typically sell for $8,000–$35,000; mid-size 198–215 models $15,000–$50,000; deck boats and the larger 225–250 series $30,000–$80,000. Sterndrive boats from the 2000s sit at the low end; late-model outboard boats near the top.
Are Stingray boats good quality?
