Wow, I just bought a used 272 with 0% down. Then again I bank with Navy Federal Credit Union and have excellent credit for a 33yr old.

I know of 3 people that have went to try and get loans. Only one of them made it through the process. This is one of the reasons so many dealers are going under.

Wow, A 272..... Vey nice. You should be able to get a signature loan for that if your credit is as good as you say.

Enjoy.

Damn I'd really like to move up but I may be stuck in what I got unless I take a beating. I guess a 20K beating over 5 yrs ain't too bad for a boat addiction. At least it's mine free and clear so I'm not upside down in it.

Fact is if you have a boat to sell you most likely take a beating but if you are upgrading you can pass that beating along onto the boat you are buying. If you are a cash buyer you are in a much better position.

way to sound like an ass.

Please forgive me if you think I sound like an ass…..that was not my intention. I don’t see how my response is any different then his was to my post....

I’m sure you’ve had $20K worth of fun.... I know if you’re like me you have. There’s no other hobby like boating. Not that I have found..

Sorry that was a late night comment, I see your side. Happy drinking...um I mean boating.

I am selling my Formula 271-SR1 so I can get a bigger boat. It is sad when you sit down and acutally put the numbers together of how much money you stick in a boat while you have it and then when it comes time to sell you get a third of what you have put into it. I have close to 60K in my boat and I will be lucky to get 20K back out of it.
