Price of fuel - impact on boat market?
Gas is selling for $3.40/gallon at my marina. I'm wondering how much the price of gas will impact boat sales (new and used). Will boats depreciate even quicker?

We're almost to the 4th of July.
I see many boats for sale but haven't seen dramatic price reductions.
Perhaps because I'm looking at boats under $50K?
