Should do a video on how folks can afford these boats. I was looking at buying the Yamaha fsh (glad I didn’t), then looked at sea pro and Carolina skiff. Tough economy. Nice video keep it up
My best guess, lots of big loans. No thank youuu, I don't want that much debt over my head for something I'm supposed to enjoy and relax. Curious what you didn't like about the Yamaha FSH, I saw it and had my opinions about it too... and thank you!
The forward opening cabins seem to be much easier to get in and out of, but if there’s a lot of people in the front of the boat at the time it might be a pain to move everyone/everything to get in! I’ve only ever had the side open, would be curious to see how practical the forward opening is for my style of boating 👍🏻
63 grand isn't that affordable to 70 percent of the male population in the US. Mabe, these boat companies would be doing a lot better if they would stop pricing themselves out of the market.
Hi teamrock1, Did you go to a dealer, and not a boat show? Curious did you get a similar deal at around $63k? Looking at this 22 HFC boat not sure go to dealer or boat show here in NJ. Any thoughts? Thx Rich
Nah .. this motor by it self cost 20k , then you have trailer cost at the minimum 3k , so it’s about 40k for the hull with the electronics.. good luck of hiring people that want to work in a factory for less then 10k a month and a facility that cost another 10k a month .. we didn’t speak about materials yet .. they are probably making 10k profit per boat and they are working very hard for that
@@giladamzaleg9847 Yes, when you look at other similar boats, this is 10 to 20k cheaper. Yes, boats have shot up like everything. The Dodge Challenger I bought in 2020 for 53k is now around 67k. Base model Corvettes can be 100k. Hell, Jeep Wranglers loaded can be 100k-lol
Yes, but theirs is a jet propulsion boat. I was going to make a video about that boat last year but to be honest I was not a fan. Plus the engine bay is so huge on those to fit 2 jet ski motors, took up wayyy to much room on a small boat
Great video BUT- sea chaser, you get what you pay for.. they are cheap for a reason. Horrible build quality I have a 2022 24 HFC will never get one again
Thank you for your comment. I’m always curious when making these affordable boat videos how they actually hold up after the sale. Thanks for the input! Also sorry to hear you’ve had a bad experience
Very cool video and informational man. Good job. You nailed it. Nice little boat. That would be perfect for me lol
Appreciate it man! It really is a nice little boat, and by far priced the best at the show

You showed the price card while showing the helm lol
you've got a good eye! lol
Nice
Going to check it out, thanks!
My pleasure, good luck!
nice review, always like your videos
Thanks I appreciate that!
Definitely prefer the previous version which had the forward opening cabin. Much easier accessibility

New boats in general are not affordable to most people. In my opinion, buy a used quality boat. Just reporting on what I see at the shows
Great video ❤
Thanks!! 😄
Double the price it should be. I'm glad I didn't need or want a new boat.
A new boat of this size honestly does not get any cheaper. That’s why the used market is great 🙌🏻
I’m getting this same boat this coming March! Delivery date is end of march
That's so awesome congrats!! Come back and let me know how you like it!

If the cabin was just slightly bigger for a head it would be perfect. Maybe one more live well
I was thinking the same thing.

Still doesn't mean it's a good price. The boat market is ridiculously inflated tight now and this boat is a perfect example.

3:14 Next time remove the price from the centre console... You spoiled it for me
sorry, didn't notice while editing
doesnt yamaha make a similiar size and priced boat?
Yes, but theirs is a jet propulsion boat. I was going to make a video about that boat last year but to be honest I was not a fan. Plus the engine bay is so huge on those to fit 2 jet ski motors, took up wayyy to much room on a small boat
@@LivinSalty thx for replying
Price was gave away half way through..the price was in the window when showthe helm
Oh well
Plus cost of new hat😂
😂
Wow I didn’t think it was that price good for today’s economy.
Least expensive boat of this size at the boat show.
you can fit a portable toilet in there
Great video

Suzuki and Sea Chaser, yikes!
How is 65000 affordable
compared to the rest of the new boat market in this category, you can't find a less expensive boat.
Still way too expensive
Why is the camera on you? Supposed to be looking at a boat not the guy talking.
Because this is a boat walkthrough video… I’m walking you through the boat. It’s how I do my videos. Don’t like it, don’t have to watch it
Let the man do his channel how he wants 😂 I actually prefer it this way
@@GmGibby I don’t care how he does it, there’s others that do boat shows too. I just would rather actually see the boat itself. Unsubscribed
