yeah the 500,000 people who got laid off last month will be at the shows buying.... so will the business owners who laid them off

and they will all be paying cash cause u cant get a loan

dreamer.......... Go down on Collins Ave during the Miami show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There is more to this boat market than go fast boats and there will be some buyers at all the shows.

From what I see is that there are two boats for sell. One has a history and different motors. Dont know why its getting so crazy on these boats. blume has had his for a while and not selling, it happens. times are crazy, but this is the slow part of the year. what i was saying about the BOAT SHOWS AND FIRST OF THE YEAR was that its not that far away. Unless you have to dump the boat whats 2 or 3 more months to wait and see if its going to pick up. And there should be more buyer if you do need to dump it at the time. but if a person wants or is trying to sell a boat and puts a price on it, its their boat they can take a offer or not. It could be a stupied price but its still their boat and their call.

blumes will sell shortly... he has gotten the word out in its a fine piece...

im refering to people thinking that the days of 5% depreciation per year on cigs is still alive and well.... its not

525s were 200-225k new(some early ones were 190k)

five years later they r not 150k boats... and the examples i gave r the market in the last six months... now what r they today? mint or not

i was refering to the local dealer based shows all over the county... not the 2 super shows... those will be attended well with buyers still

i never miss em

wow... went from a 2 yr old 16 post thread to this!!!

must be winter

Who wants to trade for 2 nice 750 Sterlings for 2 nice 525EFI's ???? I have to find out if dreamer will really jump if the boat has 525's in it?????????????????

Sure as hell beats putting money into the market

Tell him to write you a deposit check on $135K subject to replacing the motors. I'm sure you can come up with some 100 hr 525's pretty cheap. Put the sterlings in the classifieds and recover the cost.

That's your opinion and you are entitled to it. And for the most part you are right. But guess what? At your price, you are still boatless.
