Wash DC Boat Show

[Dr. Kleen]

Ran a Medical Call to the Convention Center and after the call took a look at the G/W's. The 30' Marlin was show priced at $163000, which is probably a very good price. It had everything but a generator. One of the people from G/W told me that the same boat at the Seattle show was priced at $188000.

That price is just a little more than I paid in 2004 for my Marlin!

Yeah, with the crappy economy I bet they sold very little at any of the shows. I bet 75 percent worse than last year. Look at the 20K price drop, they can not even sell their or the dealers inventory. I would think every boat manufacturer has the same problem. Look at even the car manufacturers are posting real big big losses. NOW and more likly the next few months is the time to buy if you can afford..used or new.

I bought a 2008 208 not from that show, but from the previous show. I think I got a good price from the dealer, but I am not sure. The 208 they had there was priced at 45K, which is the same price, plus some options that I've added. 225, trailer, taxes came to 59K.
