Default Big vs Small Boat Market

Hey guys,

Where's the used boat market at right now? Smaller single engines (30 and under) under 100k or bigger twin engine boats? What're people buying? Im in the market for 30 and under single and I'm curious how saturated the market is.

well the cigs are being bought cheap. add 30k trailer and try to get 100k out of them. the clean well taken care of boats seem to be holding their value. i have a nice 28 single pantera that would work well down in long island!!

What year? There are plenty for sale 10 years old +. if you are in that market it's a buyer's dream.

Hopefully the 25 range is not too saturated for obvious reasons

We still get first time High-Perf buyers stopping by all the time looking for something 24-26 foot that runs in the 60s. I dont think that will ever go away.

hoping the Cigs stay "cheap" for just a bit longer.

We started when looking at single engine 25'ers. Now though we have came to the conclusion we rather grow into our boat and not out of it. So a 31' Bullet or a 35' Cafe Racer is what we are looking at.
