Re: Is it this Bad ???
I would say the book value would be around 55k .Add in the money I spent on Brand new Hydraulic steering,and the 25k on motors and gauges and 65k is tight.The boat only had 200hrs on it when I yanked the motors and decided to build some decent reliable horsepower.The originals were 502 mag MPI motors.With the stock motors it wouldnt break 62mph.

Re: Is it this Bad ???
its not just boats, the economy is in the dumper. I don't care what anybody says it is. my bis is way down from the last 2 yrs.boat sales are, car sales are, home sales are. Nobody has any money they are willing to part with for toys and the ones they got they are dumping before things get worse. Like the post above how many used boats are out there? ya its a buyers market!!! problem is there is no buyers
