I have a customer that bought a Canyon 456 brand new when it came out in '21 (base price of $1,250,000), takes it out regularly, but has decided it's too small/not what he wants, so he is selling it at a massive loss to buy a brand new Viking 64 or 68. He will probably get bored with that in a few years and get something bigger. |

Stick 1/3rd your car in salt water 24/7 and run it uphill all the time at 2,500 to 5,000 rpm’s for 1,000 hours with just fuel and oil changes. That’s what those motors have to endure. There is no coasting , boat motors are always under a load and operate in a harsh environment. |

The rich and shameless have been running retro wooden boats here for a couple of years. Two or three local Stancraft Hammerhead 360s that start at about $900,000. Make no mistake, they can fly and some are fitted with biminis that actually look really good. Our wooden boat show is coming up, I'm going to try and get some good pictures of the interiors. They are impressive, the prow looks like a miniature warship coming at you head on.
 Attached FileThe other hot ticket are modern versions of pocket cruiser/trawlers. Kind of a weird thing, but some of them are fitted out beautifully and have really nice lines. Given a choice between the two, I think I'd opt for the comfort, range and live-aboard option of the cruiser over the speedboat. |

boyne thunder off shore boat race comes to town next weekend, it is a display of wealth that rivals anything. trucks to pull them are half a million, one guy told me his tilting trailer was 200k. Been coming here for 25 years, its a poker run to raise money for a camp for kids with cancer, so they do a lot of good. Marinia always asks people to give up their slip for weekend, I never do.

30+ years ago I had a sailboat (Cape Dory 25) that I bought used and kept at a fairly high end marina in westbrook ct because it was fairly close to where I lived and worked .
On my dock alone there were 19 other boats both power and sail in the 25-45 ft range. All these boats were quite a bit more spendy than mine. I mostly spent weekends on the boat and would pile on several early evenings each week. A couple other boats were used about the same as mine but you could count on the other 15 or 16 to be just sitting there with nobody using them for the most part . My conclusion was that the folks who could afford these high end boats were business owners who had no spare time after running their business. In general when the economy is booming folks buy boats and when the economy takes a shit those same boats sit there with "for sale" signs . Boom and bust is the way of the boat business |

If you haven't seen one, it's a trailer that hydraulically lifts one side of the boat to get around width restrictions on the highways. Very cool to see in operation. |

It’s funny. Because I’m exposed to this stuff so much it jades me. That boat is smaller than half the tender(s) for my owner’s yacht. Likewise he owns planes. As a result of spending years around that I have no desire to own a boat or airplane because I will never be in the world where I could afford the boats or planes that I’m around or operate and have no desire to own less capable boats and airplanes even when I could afford a reasonable fishing boat and a 30 year old Baron.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Not a boat guy obviously, but why do outboards cost so much? I can buy a 400hp car for less than that, and it comes with a whole car. Because it has the word "Marine" in the name. Someone else has already explained why. When in the world of boating, pick a number you think would be reasonable for anything (from a water pump to a piece of stainless steel) and then triple it. One thing Florida did well was create a tax exemption for boats. You only pay $18K max for any boat you buy (which basically means you only pay tax on the first $275K). There are no annual property taxes on boats in FL either. My boat costs me $27.50/year to own in Florida. As a result we have a massive number of boats and the world's largest boating support system in the world.
