Why buy new and take a depreciation hit when you can get a 1 or 2 old boat for cheap.
agreed! some of the deals are smoking.

I have no interest in going to the city(s) anymore.
No interest in haggling parking.
No interest in dealing with salesmen.
No interest in a new boat at this time.
Looking wouldbe nice, but pay to recieve their advertising? Think not.

I've a interest in a boat,,, but not going to buy from a basketball court. I want to see it at least floating.

"Sportsman" show? I don't know yet, but I doubt it. Just don't like the city. All 'tatoes, no meat anymore.

A nice Albemarle or OceanMaster jackshaft diesel would be great.
Them things sip fuel and are very stable for the size.

But, until there is more certainty in the economy, in particular regarding employment, I am not going to any show or purchase something other than my current 21' CC
