Someone started a thread talking about boat show prices and the increase in cost. I commented yesterday, and today the thread is gone Hmmmm. So anyways I was wondering about boat sales the last few years’ gains and losses and this is the depressing news I found about ski-boat sales. My question is why an increase in price when your volumes are tanking? The deals should be there but some how they are not. Good luck buying a new boat with a reasonable price. I am thinking a used boat market or bet yet a cable park is the way to go with out feeling gauged. I want to buy a new boat but there is just no incentive to buy NEW. High prices today and reality sets in and bam next year the boating prices drop and "your" stuck with the loss. <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.boating-industry.com/output.cfm?ID=2208277" target="_blank">http://www.boating-industry.com/output.cfm?ID=2208277</a> <BR> <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.info-link.com/bellwetherreport.asp" target="_blank">http://www.info-link.com/bellwetherreport.asp</a> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/3183/774471.jpg" alt="Upload"> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/3183/774472.jpg" alt="Upload">
