Working the show all week. Stop by booth A11 for a cold beer. Lot of bling on and off the boats.

i think it should be agreed by all, based on current boat prices, and the new "junk" that brings stupid money, every single one of us on this forum should be proud to accept the fact that the values of any current seacraft are well beyond bottomed out and should do nothing but steadily increase in value over time, or atleast until this "bubble" pops. i'm amazed at the prices people are standing in line to pay for new center console boats, regardless of brand.

Amen Capt.!!! In Casey's picture there is $400k in Marine7 engines, just a weeee little bit above my tax bracket!!!

Agreed Capt, It is amazing the garden variety two piece 23 foot hulls are pushing $100K or more. Seems like 2008 or so was the last time it was a buyers market. There will have to be a dip at some point especially with the incredible number of new builds and boats being sold into the market.

My favorite boat was the Ranger 23 Tug for a nifty boat show special of $114k. A lot packed into a small package. There were many boats well above the $1 million bar.

I agree. At the risk of ridicule, I wouldn't take a penny less than $20k for mine...without a motor. After I put the motor on, it'll go up at least $10k. Laugh if you want, but, if anyone buys my sweet little 18, they're gonna pay for it!

I agree, our little ol seacraft restores done right should bring more than they do. Everyone gave ole (Parker Yacht) crap about his $100,000 price tag for his seacraft 20 that sold for $60,000 something I think. That's not bad for a custom hand built boat with new top of the line everything in comparison to these chopper gun crap built boats that are selling nowadays.
