What I am saying is replacement value of our boats, per commercial
marine surveyor(s) is comparable to any other modern 27 foot sport
boat on the market which is $60K. That is the price to purchase new
or slightly used, 27 footish sport boat, Schumaker or comparable.
Most of those boats do not have an organized fleet like our fleet
around here . . . but perhaps in some other region.
Even Desperado is appraised at $60K replacement on commercial maine
survey above e27 market; $15K to $25K
The guild of boat workers, and boats traders, know this trying to
figure out how to capatilize on difference in valuations. By picking
up boats below market then retrofting for a supra economic profit:
$30K sale price and I have heard higher. My concern is some in the
trade stalling sales potentials to pick up below market.
Now I don't mind a savvy tradesmen whot knows they can transform a
fair market e27 into a super boat and secure a supra economic
profitc. But they better be willing to split that upside with me.
There are examples of this occurring on the fringes and in other ULDB
fleets, where, I don't believe the act is purposefully meant to
extract a supra econimic profit out of a fair market sale price.
However, the trade, observing and beyond those who first exhibited
this ability have woken up to its potential.
