Default Gladiator values

Why are Gladiator prices so low? I know the whole market is in the tank but Gladiators seem to really be hit hard. They are one of my favorite boats, seem like a lot of boat for the money.

They are some of the best bang for the buck on the market right now, period!

My take is the reason they are hit so hard is they are for a super exclusive boater. Not a lot of cockpit room, sit down only, no cabin - turns a lot of people off.

Hey Tank. I have a friend asking me about your boat.

I told him it was a great ride but you were asking extra because you were mental....errr.... I mean it was on the Mentalist.

I will put him in touch if he passes on a local boat here.

Gladiator is a boat with a smaller market, without the cabin and bolsters. Plus you better be able to dock and drive well, without a rub rail. lol... However they do look awesome.

Gladiators were about $50-60K cheaper than a TopGun when they were new. They are a very limited market. But, good ones, according to Phil are getting rare. He wouldn't be surprised to see the value increase on some of the the nicer ones in the future.

I just sold my gladiator. It was the best boat I have owned to date. Only reason I sold it was because I have a 3 month old.
