I think the end of the calendar year (like the 4th quarter, late fall or even December) is the best time to buy a new boat. As already mentioned, there are current yearly models sitting in inventory and the dealers generally want to make room for the new year's versions that will be coming.

I took advantage of this way back in December 2015 when I bought my new boat. Discounted overall cost, free upgrades. Living in MN, I obviously had no reason to take it until the following spring so I actually paid for it in December and gave them 4 months to rig it. They kept it inside all winter for me until I picked it up.

Just last year, my friend was looking at a 2023 Lund Adventure series boat. In March, it was listed at over $50k fully rigged. By September, the exact same boat was listed at $38,500.
