I think Scott is very realistic on his prices, but some people who broker their boats through him are not. If a boat is only worth 75k and the owner owes 125k, good luck convincing the owner to list it for 80k

Why do you ask Brian? Are you thinking of doing a dealer network?

maybe so, and Im doggin them for that. But if it were me I wouldnt take on a boat with unrealistic sellers. thats just me.

Not against shrogren but I think better prices are to be had from pvt sales. People say well brokers this or that, I have seen just as many horror stories from brokers as pvt sales. Either way you better take a good look at it your self and hire a independent inspector that the borker DOESNT reccomend.

I agree totally with Fountain4402. I have learned that an independent inspector is well worth the money.

I bought two boats from Randy at Fastboats and both deals were very smooth. I think what sets him apart from others is that he is in a market where the trade isn't seasonal and that gives him the ability to step up more than others IMO.

I seem to get more tire kicker calls lately. Thinking about looking for a quality dealer. We build everything from 18ft to 41ft. Lot's of good information here.
