    I don't feel the boats that are priced under 35k are going to go down. The demand for them will be higher...since many people will have to settle for a lower price point. Currently there are some deals for people buying boats under 35k however that's typical of fall and Winter Pricing. Come boat show time Feb to April the new 2025's will have some package deals but will still be expensive

    Ive thought about getting a boat with no console electronics. Just a ghost TM with a 10" screen for spot lock and a phone mount for the console. I would like to see a boat with high quality bare bones necessities around $45k. Just a good hull, a direct mounted motor, and a good TM and livewell. I dont need speakers, fancy paint or a bajillion HP. None of that crap catches fish.

    I hope they come down even more. They'll either have to cut production to increase supply and demand or drop prices more and keep producing the same. With what's happening with the economy boats are an even more a luxury item.

  • @riccochet704
    @riccochet704 Місяць тому +1

    For the past 3+ years manufacturers have been crying about material prices being the reason for the increased boat costs. Well, material prices have not come down, nor have regulations been eased. So where did BassCat cut corners on that boat to offer it for that price? Or have they been gouging the hell out of us all along? Either way, the consumer gets screwed.

  • @ThumperSpinnerbaits

  • @Skeedabo
    @Skeedabo Місяць тому

    The question is what are they decontenting to get the lower pricing? It doesn’t mean quality will be less but you’ll get lower margin parts. For example plastic vs. metal catches, lower grade carpet, cheaper tires, etc. I’ve been in RV manufacturing for 30+ years and it’s the natural cycle of manufacturing…Keep the price point on the higher line models and introduce lower price point models and getting the lower price with obsolete material, excess inventory parts, discontinued parts, etc.
