What’s Your Boat Worth Now?

BoatTEST now has over 100,000 classified listings. Is this boat listed among them?

It is no secret that used boat prices, just like homes, corporate planes, hotel
rooms and most everything else are fetching lower prices than they did a year ago.
That’s the bad news. The good news is that in all likelihood your boat’s value has
not fallen nearly as far as your stock portfolio. Traditionally boat dealers and
boat owners could refer to several used boat price guides to check trade-in values
with some degree of accuracy. But these days the price guides can’t keep up with
changing market. Now your best bet is to use classified ads as a guide. That’s what
the dealers are doing. Happily, BoatTEST’s classified section now has over 100,000
listings. Keep in mind that these are retail prices and dealers will offer you less
in trade because they must re-sell them. Also, we’d kick out the highest and lowest
prices and go for the mean.   Visit BoatTEST’s 100,000 classified listings --
