The used boat market here in MN was outrageous this past spring and summer. I was bidding on boats 20 minutes after listing, securing a deal over the phone only to have the boat sold out from under me while I was in transit.
I sold a 2012 Skidoo Renegade 600 with 4200 miles for $4800 in September. $300 more than I paid for it one year prior. The buyer contacted me in less than a day and paid asking price.... guess I left money on the table.
Yup, in Green Bay too.
Old boss finally wanted a boat this past summer after me trying to coax him for 10 years. He had 22k and he never bought one, all junk til you hit about 35k.
