I don't have much free time to get out on the water anymore and want to sell my kayak and trailer. I am not having much luck on Facebook marketplace and wanted to see if anyone had recommendations on where else I could list it.

Price?
99% of the reason you cant sell on FB Marketplace is because your pricing it too high.
I see people selling 3 year old kayaks with stuff on it for 90% of MSRP. Why would i pay 90% MSRP for a boat and addons of unknown quality and no warranty. The answer: I wont. I’d rather spend another 100-200 dollars and get a brand new boat with warranty and add things i actually want.
If you have high end addons, take them off and sell them seperately. I dont care if you spent 400 dollars on a Garmin Fish finder in 2019 and they still sell for 250 on Amazon. Its worth 20 dollars to me now because i dont know what you’ve done to it or the health of the battery.
Take what you think its worth, remove 25% and i promise it will be gone in a week.
For the right price people will drive afew hundred miles. But i’m not driving 2-3 hours 1 way to save 150-300 bucks.
