There is a fuel price thread running on T&T. I am wondering what high fuel prices bode for trawler sales?
I have been told that my boat is not selling because those who want it are old f**ts and that the OF"s are holding on to what money they have left after the stock market decline.
I have been told that younger people who have "cash flow" (remember when that term applied to you?) want a faster boat because they are still working and time is money.
Seems like I am in the wrong place at the wong time to sell my boat. I remember, however, that back in the 70's and 80's there were some fuel availability and price problems which helped trawler and sailboat sales. ..so maybe history is repeating itself.
Should I hope for $5.00 diesel?
