What Wild said, that Nortech is beautiful. Wonder what the story is... As for the boat market, I'm kinda waiting to see how far it will go. Fortunately / Unfortunately, I don't think it's bottomed out yet. Just my $.02.

Shallow minded, I see you have a Wellcraft Nova. How do you like it? My nieghbor has one, i think its a 1990. I work on it almost every week.Unfortinetly we found out after the purchase,4 years ago, it sank in salt water.It has been a nightmare for me to work on.Electrical problems galoure.I took it out about a month ago and got it running pretty good,twin 454's. no speedo or gps but I would say around 60 to 65 mph at 4000.Anything over 4000 port motor pops and back fires.Still have to work that out but it went good.Nice handling boat.

36 Concept / Y2K Superboat/39 Nor-Tech
|
Well I thought I was going to wait to see if I could see where the market was going to go this winter,but I found a great deal on a 36 Concept,and for diffrent reason's then someone else might think,so I jumped on it.If the market goes down alttle more over the winter so what I found what I was looking for in a boat and a price I am happy with.Best of luck shoping for a boat, but don't miss out on something you find that you really like to try to find the bottom of the market.

that Awsome / Cris cat is a nice not too expensive cat. I'd be a buyer if I could insure that type of boats here... I saw it too!

Nice setup at a great price. 100 mph, reliable power, sunpad for the ladies.

The non high-end cats are suffering because of insurance. There's a big difference in sensitivity to exhorbitant premiums between a guy buying a $50K boat and one at $500K.
Triples hurts the NorTech badly.

That being said, There is a much greater population that could pay cash for a $65,000.00 cat and just purchase liability insurance.
I plan to own a cat at some point and I plan to pay cash. I don't plan to pay exhorbitant full coverage insurance.
