The Boat Market Bubble is bursting...

[2kwik4u]

What's not complicated is my 2013 with analog gages and cables running the important things. Dont get me wrong, I have a 2018 Panera turbo that has significant technology but it comes with far more research before it's released and significant training of service providers.

You're also far better equipped to walk for help from your Panamera than swim for help from your Yamaha should something fail or not work as intended. Calling roadside assistance for a vehicle is far easier than in a boat (assuming it's even available in a boat). And a vehicle manufacturer has far more skin in the game, building 100's of thousands not just thousands of vehicles. R&D, hardware and software testing all get bigger budgets and better results. There is also a good deal more federal oversight in the automotive realm than the recreational marine environment.

All of that to say....I agree

Evil, do you tow your Yamaha with your Panamera? How is it on the launch ramp? ?

I feel like I am missing this something. This looks just like the one I have my truck, minus the stickers.

Im going to have nightmares after that pic

It would be very euro chic to pull the Yamaha with the Panamera.

It appears that the towing capacity seems to be around 4,850 lbs.

Don't know how well it might pull up a slippery ramp.

To complete the look you need a strap down, suction cup luggage rack with a few plastic totes without lids secured by bungee cords riding on top. Perfect ??

Ok so whats yall opinion on purchasing a 2009 232 Limited s for 29-30? it books 33-37 according to NADA? I currently have a boat that I can put up for sale and will make money on but will be priced within NADA guidelines or I can wait and see how the market plays out.

Limited or Limited S?

Either way, that is a unicorn boat that will hold it's value beyond COVID. Those hulls are sought after by those that want the space of the 242, but the older, supposedly more durable, pre 2010 hulls.

It was inflated during COVID, so NADA is reflecting what some have gotten. But they are just so rare that there are few sales to base the value on. So each sale is unique. There are two for sale in our region, a Limited with third party tower and a limited S. Stick to your guns on that animal if selling. And if you see one in the $29-$30K range, it seems to be a good buy. Even when some 242LS have sold under $30 a few years ago. (Not now of course, but they did when I bought mine)

Good luck.
