But you are right.....new boat prices are insane.

So this may have advantages. Like trailering to different places.
I know the next port from me Scituate MA has a club with maybe 16 boat or so??

Is that 425/month 12 months a year or just during the NE boating season?
good question, that’s 12 months a year. but if you owned a 24 foot center console, even if you trailered it, you have spring tune up, repairs, winterization, shrink wrap, taxes, insurance. and if you keep it at a marina, that’s a ton more, right??

i have 2-3 close friends i fish with all the time, if i were to do this, each of them would give me $150 every time they came with me.

i do 7-10 charter trips a year, some i split with friends, some i pay the whole nut as it’s just me and my kids. so regardless there’s a big cash outlay each year.

i’m hoping that when i look seriously to buy there has been some kind of correction in prices!

i’ve always loved your boat.
