Thread: Used boat prices, post COVID

No. Most of the big gear looks to be fetching good coin.

I dunno where all the boats will go. Lots still in the yard. Possibly go back to the Manufacturers????

Not really a good sign - economist advice from the old box tonight was "survive until 25" meaning 2025...

whats supposed to happen in '25?

Hasn't even started yet...

I know - that's what I thought when the economist came out with the survive until 25 line, more optimistic than the rest of us!!!

boats are always boom and bust though. Typically one of the first things to go when the economic times aren't rosy

I have seen lots of flash big boats on the roads yesterday and today. Obviously some are still doing all right, and good on them.

25 is when the optimists were predicting interest rates to ease / fall. However over here inflation is starting to lift again and may trigger an interest rate rise if it continues. Will cause a stir as most not looking at that option.

We have a two speed thing going on. A lot of cashed up boomers spending like no tomorrow. Government spending and younger family and lower to middle income homes scrathing to pay their bills.
