You have to realize that the markup on a boat in this price range is not the
same as a car. A Chevy at 27k probably has $4000 markup over invoice. And
there is probably another $2,500 that the dealer gets below invoice.
On a boat - there may only be about $2000 markup to begin with over his cost
after shipping and prep work.
He may sell 100 boats in a year vs the car dealer who is selling 100 cars a
month. He has to make some profit or close the doors.
If you can get it for $26k then you are probably doing good. $25k was just
too low.

Well I made a offer and the dealer wouldnt take it.. it's depressing.
The boat was listed for 27K and I offered 25K and they said no. so I
guess I will just wait and try to find a used one somewhere.. wish me
luck!
