Pricey Used Boats

Thought it’d be fun to start a light hearted thread of used boats and their inflated list prices. Not to debate whether the price is right or not, just ones you think are pretty overpriced. I think it’s in poor taste to comment on someone’s listing whether you think it’s too much, but that doesn’t mean this can’t be fun too! I’ll start with this 2003 CLiner with 2008 engines for $30k.

Way to spoil the party!

I have been watching lower end pontoons years and they all seem to have doubled in price.

Holy, so supposedly my boat went up in value!!!!!. Inconceivable.

$40k before taxes.

2009 tritoon with average features, no trailer, and some wear and tear. They had it for sale last summer for $34k with no takers at this dealer. I would think the first number would have to be a “2” in the price instead of a “4” to look twice at it.

Newer electronics and tm, but 15k for a nearly 30 year old boat. I had basically this same boat bought and eventually sold for 9k almost a decade ago.

It’s not a fishing boat, but this guy is delusional. I don’t care how well he maintained it, it’s still 28-years old.

Buddy has a 2004 lund angler with a 90 four stroke on it he bought brand new for 14k. Seen a ‘05 angler sold not long ago 25k.

@bigwerm I saw this posted yesterday too and couldn’t believe it. The guy is getting roasted in the comments though which is pretty funny to watch.

…and who ever said Trackers don’t hold their value.

I figured someone would post yours here B!
I was hoping it would get posted before you commented.

Hahaha with a newer motor I think you are prolly 5-6k low right now! 🤣 I hope you and even the crazier ones gets what they want, it just won’t be from me. A fool and his money are always quickly separated, so I’d rather it go to someone upgrading equipment or trips like I’m sure you will!

Here is one!

Wow! That is basically my boat and couldn’t even imagine trying to get 30k. Insane!!

Maybe it’s just me and my expectations are way off… my buddy bought that same Ranger for 19k 2 years ago.

I like that boat. But to pricey for me. I’m a tiller guy but that would be a boat I’d think about in the right situation

Saw this one today and thought of this thread.

Wow, crazy! So are people getting these prices? A nice profit would certainly help my attempt to rationalize a new boat.

Saw this one the other day!!

Hard to believe someone could call a 2003 ‘nearly new’ with a straight face. That boat was probably, what, 25K when it was brand new?

But if guys are getting those prices??? Limited supply due to Covid shutdowns + an injection of free money into the system = inflation.

I saw that WX1910 too…omg. Doesn’t even have a kicker. Page Mods had to jump all over the comments. I sold my 2015 in 2019, didn’t realize I should have kept it as an appreciating investment!

This 620 is sideways too…probably listed for more used than what it cost new.

Holy smokes am I glad I bought last summer when I thought prices had gotten a little out of whack. Comparable used boats seem to be priced 30-40% higher than a year ago.

Yeah more power to the sellers I guess, I just won’t be buying.

A product is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it.
