Very clean looking boat in the pics. It will be interesting to see what it goes for in this market. Seems like a steal if it can be bought under 30K and it has been kept up well.

Pics dont show everything, but I agree with mental that looks VERY clean. Looks like someone will get a great deal if that is what they are looking for.

Rich.

Repos make it tough to sell your boat in this market. Sucks.

Get used to it. I bet this is not temporary, but rather a permanent price correction. New boats still need to go through it. They either will or the builder won't survive this.

Your right, I believe its hard to look at any new boat pricing with any common sense or rationalization. Look at msrp pricing of a brand new Formula 382 Fas Tech compared to a brand new Formula 353 Fas Tech.
The 38 is at $ 377,000 and the 35 is at $302,000 thats with mild power!
You cant tell me it cost 75 thousand dollars for 3 feet more of fiberglass and a few more feet of upholstery! I am not knocking Formula in any way and if they can get that money more power to them, but for me its hard to justify.

And the sad part is they need to figure out how to get the 35 back MSRP at just over 200, so you can buy it in the 170s. That is what will revive the market.

Just got back from the Emerald Coast PR. While down there, one of our group traded his 292 Fast Tec on a new '08 353 FTwith 496 HO's. Wouldn't be polite to repeat the numbers, but rest assured, he got a hell of a deal! Most of the talk while down there was about the great deals on new, old stock boats that were heavily discounted. Great time to step up if you've got some extra $$$$.

I agree; and I look at it the same way I did when I sold my house. I made some money on paper, but actually lost money. Same deal with my current boat. I won't take too bad of a beating on it, but I will be farther ahead with a newer, bigger boat.

New boat prices are absolutely insane! Until I start chitting $100's and wiping with $50's used boats will be for me!
