I don't see panic selling. But I do see a lot of price reductions, mostly nominal, but reductions nonetheless. I still see you must be stupid pricing as well. I do know, sellers have become a bit easier to deal with. Been look at a couple and have gotten the info I needed to decide whether to move forward. Some buyers I'm competing with have had financing fall thru. I'm in no hurry and think we may see a few "deals" pop towards the fall.Bringing up this thread again. …
I am starting to see (in my area) a lot of mid 20k boats suddenly dropping to low teens.
Not years, dollars. Like 2000 - 2006 260s pushing as low as 12k. I am starting to feel panic in the ads that some sellers are felling.
Everyone needs at least 3 to 5k improvement. Canvas, water heater,upholstery, etc, but starting to get a sense of panic in some sellers.
Came across a nice 92 270 in western state. I made a comment to owner that I loved the boat and color. He was begging me to come get it and would drop price to what I could afford, needs it gone. Are we seeing panic selling?
Inventory is still a bit low, but seems to be building on some models. For example, in my area 330/340/370 are slim pickings, but 310s are piling up.
