Even More CL Finds!

"Well we are starting to see the same ol' boats that were for sale last year. Same price too."

I like the owners who dropped the $$ last fall, didn't sell it and now raised the asking $$ up come springtime. I guess they'll drop it again next falltime......

Yep.

Been seeing more and more stupid asking prices and worthless ad's.
By me I'm seeing 20 yr old I/O cuddies for $15K.
As in '80's era Rinkers and Four Winns. What are these people smoking?

In an earlier life I would have alerted them to the error of their ways :devil:

easy...you're hittin' a little close to home on that one. ;)

You guys know the routine. Both seller and buyer trying to maximize value. I'll say this though having gone to a few boat shows this year: in most places, $20,000 doesn't buy anything new...except a really cheap POS. Troof.

True Dat, A quick walk thru of the Detroit Boat Show, Only thing available was jet ski's the size of a small automobile for about 14,500 and any small family boat 16-18 ftr fiberglass with a 115 p was approaching 30,000. But there where plenty of pontoon boats better the 50+ g's and and a handful of wakeboard boats tickling a 100'gs.

I saw a Supra with all the trimmings that said

"Show sale. Only $450/month with 10% down."

Then in real small print it said 240 months. :eyecrazy:
