USED Boat price trend$.. UP or DOWN..lately

[spears]

Well I put my tiny tinny out the front of the house in Evans with a for sale sign on it and in the first 3 hours I reckon 6 blokes looked at it and within 4 hours a reasonable offer was made.
I said the money I wanted and the next day they come back with it.
Only trouble was I went fishing before then decided to keep the poor little bugger before Johnny Cash was handed over.

I have heard in the states they cant sell the bigger boats and yaughts that have been reclaimed by the banks, so salvage companies are stripping them and just selling the parts. Just like the houses.
