Over Valued

Response to 23 inboard for sale near Detroit!
This is part of the problem I see with some of the rhetoric we are sending over the net people who have poorly maintained boats now think they are worth a fortune because we keep telling people they are rare boats based on Jerry Conrads research which we know is slightly flawed. And people like Paul pay a small fortune for a boat that is not worth it and then sink even a bigger fortune in it because he has it and likes the boat. I have no problem with spending money on a classic boat that is worth restoring and you do it more because you love it not because it is an investment but there are a lot of people out there that take our word on this stuff and price accordingly. Agood example is the boat shown by merccruiser a few years ago in the eastern part of PA it wasnt a bad boat but it wasnt anywhere near the price they were asking for it. It was going for around 17k or so and it was nto a pristine example but it was a 23 with v Drive. Don';t get me wrong but we need to do a better job of educating the general public on what things are worth or not worth. come on its a 350Q 235 hp and not a speed boat but not a bad boat either. but no pics of interior etc.... wonder why? We really need to be a little more responsible on this site like the guys on the acbs site are when we tell people stuff is rare etc....
