Sold my 288 Sunsation in August with the intention of buying a certain boat...deal fell thru, was absolutely zero on the used market I was interested in that I could afford....got frustrated....bought a Jeep with the intention of playing with that instead of boats for a couple years...first nice day, I had that longing feeling of loss in the pit of my stomach thinking of going a single summer without a rig....sold the jeep....boat shopping again :)

I'm a broke-dick though, looking at 10+ year old boats...but at least I'm moving up a couple years, and couple feet from where I was!

The best deals are on 10 year old slightly used boats.:)

2012 bought my first boat..........220 Searay

2014 trade up to a 252 Formula

Spring of 2016 added High Performance 540 Stroker to 252 (See my "Building a Sleeper" post)

That should at least count for 2 and 3 quarters

Bought my laveycraft this time last year... Ready to sell and sit out this summer to return in something bigger...

Market is too strong not to consider a sale for the right price...

Last year sold my Formula 357 SR1 and bought my current 419 Formula FASTech. This makes my fourth Formula boat.

The number of boats for sale is way down from 2 years ago. Hard to find a clean one.
