People will keep buying and they will continue to go up. There are waiting lists with most boat makers in Texas right now. J-P put it best. Seeing my daughter catch her first trout this year on her first bay trip with me and her mom was worth it alone. At that point you aren't thinking about what cost what. That image of her next to that fish will be in my head until I'm gone!

Ive been in the boat biz for 15+ years, the prices have really sky rocketed in the past 5-6 years. It all started back when the economy flipped. Lots of vendors / suppliers and builders shut down. Large groups like brunswick consolidated. Prices for supplies and building materials increased as so did the product. It got really slow for a while there. Payday sucked. The market is definitely turning around and with eagle ford in texas it has really made a big difference. Sales are good and retail sales are even better. I have to say them boys down south are making big bucks. I agree, the prices are outrageous, then you think about fuel for truck and boat, storage if you dont have the room and yearly maintenance. To have your own, you just cant beat it ...Last edited by expressfish; 07-30-2014, 04:39 PM.
