Default Just a thought ;; there will be some very good bargains ..

So you may be able to buy a boat cheap but you might have to pay cash for
it.


At probable prices, that shouldn't be a problem for anyone who can afford
the upkeep and maintenance. Used sailboats are going to be like some of
those cell phone deals or how Gillette became big in razor blades. The boat
will be essentially free but it's still going to cost a lot to keep and
maintain them. Yard and dockage costs are the same for the 32 footer I
bought for 15 grand as they would be for a brand new, 250 grand, 32 foot
Morris.

OTOH the stock of used sailboats got dramatically reduced last week except
for those interested in restoration projects.
