On a trade? Probably.

Retail sale - check nada.com for a pretty accurate retail price.

Is there any chance you are taking a single example offered for a
quick sale and using that as a brush to paint the entire product line
of two well-respected companies?

If you have more data from several sales of same product as well as of
similar product from other mfgs. please share so that statistical
inferences can be made.

If you think Honda & Yamaha are bad for depreciation you should see
what a used Ficht or optimax is worth, assuming anyone will buy them at
all:-)

More bullship from Karen Smith, who doesn't know her ass from the side
of a barn, probably because they're the same size and color.

Harry,

How could you stoop so low??? :=)))))))

Might have had something to do with Smith's post, in which she
insinuated she knew something of significance about the resale value of
used "hi-tech" outboard motors in the United States.

What do you think is the depreciation on any outboard motor? They are not
an investment, toys tend to drop in value pretty quickly.When the factory
warranty runs out, the price plummets.

Why would you pay anymore than 50% on a 3 year motor? Your car worth 50% at
3 years?

Have any real data to back your wild allegations up, or just spewing
crap out of your blow hole, as usual?
