There’s currently a dearth of used motor cruisers in the 34’ - 37’ range, and as a result, asking prices have rocketed. Boats that were listed at around £75K last year, are now a good £20k above that, and demand seems undiminished. We will be in the market for a Sealine F33, S34 or S37 at the end of this year/early next year. What are the panels views on asking prices over that period. How many of these boats recently sold have been purchased by those that may not have realised the expense of boat ownership, and Is it possible that once the full effects of the pandemic hit, that there could be a flood of used boats hitting the market, with a subsequent price drop. I don’t want to profit from someone else’s difficulty, but at the rate prices are currently going, we may not be able to comfortably afford the boat of our choice.
