The market will help dictate what the trade in value is. It will also be determied by how much they are moving on the boat in stock. To let you know, you can also work with them on the trade in value. Alot of times they will give you a lower number to give room for negotiation. I would say somewhere around the low 30k range though.

35k will buy this boat….as long as the boat I’m pursuing is still available

Make the dealer an offer as ridiculous as the one he made you, and you might find out what the real amount of difference is that you can trade for, if you are serious. They have to start somewhere, and as you probably know, you can always go down in price but it's really hard going up when you are the seller.

done that.....like I said before I like the boat I have and don’t mind owning it, just saw something a little bigger that I wouldn’t mind owning as well but it does not make sense to bend over for it..

"bend over for it" or "NOT bend over for it"??
