Used Boat prices

[Pointer 78]

Will be in the market to purchase another boat sometime this year or early next year (Christmas or winter pricing). Been keeping an eye on Craigslist in many of the surrounding cities like Huntsville, Knoxville, Nashville, Atlanta etc...... and I'm kinda stunned at used boat prices. My first boat was a 94 Bumblebee 254 with a 90 HP motor. I paid $7500 for it. I have seen the same boat for sale a few times FOR THE SAME PRICE I PAID NEW. Am I that out of touch?

The crazy prices of new boats are keeping the price of used boats high.

The market is growing again...slowly but growing. I would take a good look at used stuff at dealerships too. Many are throwing in some sort of service agreements and warranties!

They they are. When I traded boats the difference from what they gave me on trade and what i paid new was only 7g. This was after I owned it for 5 years.
