What did you pay for your boat before things went crazy?

Real curious as to what prices were for new boats especially prior to 2020.

I'm currently casually searching for a 21ish foot bay boat with a 150... and by all accounts these are somewhere from 15 to 20,000 higher than they were two years ago. That obviously affects the secondary/used market as well....i get all the supply/demand reasons why, just curious if anyone is willing to share for comparison's sake.

In 2019 I bought a used 2007 seapro sv1900 with 115 Merc (200 hours at the time), excellent condition for 14,500.

in 2014 i paid $1750 for a 17ft 52" wide alweld vee hull aluminum boat with side console, $1k for the trailer, and just barely over $6k for a 40hp outboard for it.

after adding 24v trolling motor and tax, title, licenses i was all in at just under $10k, same exact rig today would easily be costing over double that much and i could easily sell it tomorrow for $15k

Dang. I wanna sell my 24’ hydrosport (2 yam 150’s) and get something bigger. 4 years ago I bought it for $30k (used of course), and my mechanic thinks I can get $50k for it now. Thought that was crazy, but maybe not ?????

Surprisingly found a great deal on a 2012 Basscat Sabre back in December with a 175 Pro Xs off Facebook. Had two poles, ultrex, and tandem trailer all for $27k. The hull alone was probably worth a good $18k without the $4k of poles, $3k ultrex, and well maintained motor. Good deals are out there just gotta either be open to traveling or fast on the trigger
