Pretty good thought that even though new boat sales are at a really
low eb, One cans till support jobs and the economy by adding options
or making upgrades to what you already have.

That's what I plan to do with the Marquis...

Very true when you consider the cost of a new boat.

Amazing what they are asking for them.

Yeah, new baots are high. And if you use Ebay as any kind of a
barometer, people are posting used auctions with high starting bids
and reserves on top of that. No more starting with a buck and working
your way up to the reserve or making it an open war.

Nothing like scaring off bidders that way. And that's for about any
boat unless it's the charity auctions and most of those are parts
junkers anyhow.
