So the barely used 2013 boat in the end cost me maybe $10,000 less than a brand new one and I still didn’t get any warranty. A good deal? Not in my books.
I would happily buy a barely used boat. At 50% of new. Otherwise, no way.

Wow $100/hr for your time you are charging the ***** out of yourself. Lol. Do you need a hired man I would come work for you for $100/hr. You do have some very valid point when buying new vs. used. A lot of these things most people would not change or address when buying a used boat. Lots of people have the mindset of run it until she blows. They are the guys you will see on the side of the raid changing a blown tire or looking in the ditch for their wheel that flew off due to lack of maintenance or sitting at the launch trying over and over agin to get the boy to fire or having to boost the weak battery at the launch.
