Is it Me or is this boat over priced? It's a USED single engine.

Its seems that their are a few brands of boats that are continually priced very high. I have seen a few that are price 5-15 grand above book value. This seems crazy to me since considering the price of fuel and the state of the economy. I would think it would be a buyers market now.

Isn't there a brand new left over for 99K out there?
Found it! and with a 525! Seems like this one is advertised just to help sell the new one.

Well the past few boats I've purchased were 1-2 years used. I guess I got them for steals compared to some of the prices I seen this week

Maybe 65-70K if you really like it... and it's only going to keep losing value for years to come. This is exactly why I buy older boats that have been re-done. Everyone is different, but I'll never buy a new boat. Just my .02
