It is sure a buyers market.

There are eleven ads with Baja's forsale just on the front page of this section!

I have heard of some very low prices on many brands.

A buddy has a really sweet 35 Fountain with 575's and he just dropped the price over $20K. It has been on the market all year at what I thought was the right price.

It's tough with gas prices and the end of the season here.

Good luck

Nothing is selling. It's time to steal a boat if you're in the market.

I'm looking to buy but have slowed down my search. Very busy with my shop (worked all weekend) so wouldn't have time to boat anyway (although if I had one I'd probably find time). :D

I want a single engine 25 but have seen some deals on larger twin engine boats that make it tempting.

I haven't actually made an offer on anything yet. I have been putting feelers out and have e-mailed and spoken to a few sellers. Also had a couple long distance boats looked at (surveyed).

I guess I'm waiting to see what gas does. Also it's now end of the season for a lot of areas so prices may drop. Most of the sellers don't seem too anxious to sell or lower prices yet. I guess I'll wait it out a little longer.

I had my 245 on Boattrader for about a month. I took it off the market till next year since it does not seem like a good time to sell.

I'll be winterized in about 3 weeks - you couldn't pay me enough to start the engines before next spring. I'll put it on the market then, I want something faster.

Yea, same deal here, tons of tire kickers and jerks who offer $15k less than what I am asking. Pisses me off more than anything. I'd broker it but I don't want to have to pay to have it pun in the water, pay to store it there, pay a commission. Hell I should just pay them to use it. At least it would get used.

Jason, broker boats or private sales no one is buying. Dealers are giving great deals also, gas prices don't help. Jason just sold H2X looking to go bigger, had to take lower price for mine also. We can all be mad but it's a buyers market. We just have to decide do want to sell or keep our boats, good luck Jeff

Think I am going to put mine up for sale after the first of the year.

1991 Bandit with 454 Mag. Probably ask around 15K

Wanting to get into a 24OL or possibly a early 90s 272, Shooter. Something in the mid to upper 20K range.

Holy Crow!!!
In a recent and unexpected change of events my boat has been sold. Yes thats right....she's gone. :evilb: :D :( :evilb: Very smooth transaction. Nice guy that seemed like he had his head on his shoulders. At least she went to a good home. :(

Fantastic! Funny how things turn around.

I've got '97 Hammer I'm looking to sell. Actually have pretty good interest from the lake sheriff of all people. He gave me his number for when I wanted to sell. Might just be calling him very soon!

Looking to pick up a Sunsation Aggressor or 288.

Where did he find your boat...offshore classifieds, boat trader, word of mouth etc. I am just wondering what the best route to advertise would be. The time to sell the 25 OL has come. Thanks
