So by my waiting around 5 years to sell my old 272 I might get a 1/3 of what I put in it. Hell yes there's always a up side

Its supply and demand. Poor economy two presidential administrations ago led to lower production and sales. Therefore now there is a shortage of quality used boats on the market. Many new manufacturers were affected by the pandemic with everything from employee to parts supply chain problems. On top of that less people were traveling or going out to eat and therefore had money to dump into luxuries such as boats, further driving prices up. Its not just boats. The high end car industry, jetskis, atvs, motorcycles, etc have all been affected and are seeing a surge in prices.

I was just at the Palm Beach boat show and most companies I talked to cannot get resin due to the freeze in TX earlier this year. The plant is supposed to be back online at the end of this month. Boat building stopped for many manufactures.

I ordered a boat and it will be at LEAST November

Shoot your doing good then. Some manufacturers are November of next year!

Yup, any decent brand fish boat is sold out of 2021's and half way into 2022's already.

I like to think of what I ordered is decent and its planned for November this year LOL

Congratulations! Post some pics when you get it.

Mercury Parts and Even Maintenance parts are in short supply as well. Back ordered

I have a 28 skater that I redid over the winter. New paint, new interior, and 2013 300xs's with less than 300 hours. I would sell it if somebody wanted it. $135k.
