past 3 years has been good…people were pulling home equities left, right, and center. cheap money increased demand…fed have slowly killed it.

Lots of people say outboards have or will kill the traditional offshore powerboat ( big I/O engines/H.P.) but unless there's a bunch of cash buyers out there financing and insurance is the demise.

I said when selling our cafe that it’s a working man’s boat. 70-80k market people were yanking money out of their homes or getting other creative loans at low interest. That’s done now. Interest rate is too high. Like said above, most guys that have cash around 100 could up it a bit and get into a twin step.
not to mention anything above a 2000 is easier to finance and insure.

RWD is in great shape and a cool boat. I still think asking is too high especially since the trailer will need to be gone though. For the same price as RWD you could get a nice TS gun with more reliable power. Not sixes but still…

the buyer pool for performance boats is already a fraction of the boating population. From that, the amount of people like me looking for big power #6 cigarettes is so small it’s almost non existent. Just not that many people on the planet (maybe a handful) that can and want to deal with these specific boats.

You can its just not nearly as cool.... Buy a #6 boat and CC with eggbeaters problem solved.

I know you want a Cig & 6s but for the money, I'd look hard at the OL Stiletto at American Custom Marine. Seems like a lot of boat for 105k.

That is nice, loud. How did they run seems they did side by sides, stags and triples in them. Always wondered there are a few that come up and are priced a little more for the working guys.

I have a friend out a Lot that was going to look at RWD, why do you guys feel that is over priced? If it's as clean as the pictures show with dry sump 6's. I mean that is asking price. What do you think a fair price would be?

Trailer is a issue though, we are in salt down here.

Just saw this big power 6s and a condo underneath. Again not a cig but a lot of boat for the $$.
