I would have agreed with you about New vs Used about 10 yrs ago, but I've since come to realize that the potential cost savings of a used Boat often compensates for any increased aggrivation.
In addition buying new with a warranty does not preclude you from having plenty of aggrivation.
The last 2 boats I bought new I had plenty of regrets from day 1, and having warranty work done from a manufacturer who's plant is 1500 miles away is quite annoying and time consuming.
With that said there are benefits/detractors to each but are not necessarily mutually exclusive.
