I've been trying to choose a cruising-type boat myself, and don't care

great boat...but gotta find a used one at a reasonable price...hard to
do...


Yeah, it's an "investment."
Probably 40k for one a dozen years old.
That's why Bayliner sells more boats.
When you have to plunk down 40 large, you look for alternatives.
Cost-wise I'm looking for more of a Chevy type boat, but could move up
to a Buick, which might be equated to a 12 year old Rosborough.
But the Rosborough isn't as disposable as a car, and should hold some
value a bit longer.
