Thread: Prices

    Re: Prices

    Would seem logical to me that demand for this class of boats is likely to increase, not decrease.

    I had a closing yesterday. We expect another to close by the end of the week. I wrote a deal yesterday and one of my brokers got a deal signed and deposit in, also yesterday. Believe what you want. When the lights come back on I expect to be even busier.

    My MB ML 320 bluetec was terminal, so a new/used car was medically necessary for me. Here in the People's Republic of MD I was still able to get it done. I shopped online, then wrapped in latex, masked and slathered in hand sanitizer went to the dealership (with an appointment) and 12 hours later (shortest required time for a car purchase) I drove the new to me car directly home to my garage.

    Don't think I've even been to a dealership. When I buy a new vehicle, they just deliver it to my door and I sign the papers in MY office, not theirs. Its amazing what they will do to sell a car if you tell them how to do it.

    I don’t see any great bargains on cars. Used or new?

    Hi Firebird:

    The new boat building business is at times like a game of musical chairs. The builder has to sell the current boat (sometimes at a loss) to generate enough cash flow to pay his suppliers or labor in order to finish another vessel under construction.

    This is a vicious circle.

    Hi Spundraft,

    It’s hard for me to conceive a dealer taking a $500K hit (guesstimate) on that boat just to generate cash flow. Most dealers aren’t paying cash for their inventory, which makes it even more difficult to comprehend. It’s easy to see how an individual would take a hit on selling a used boat, and I know for fact that’s happening now.
