"The main reason boats are so expensive is due to a lack of demand. Because the overall demand for boats is low, the cost to buy a boat is high. Manufacturers can't drive the cost down through high-volume production. Sep 29, 2018"




Interesting. One would think the opposite. I would have assumed during strong economic times that boats would be in higher demand due people buying more non-essential luxury items such as boats, RV's, motorcycles, sports cars, etc. I have read on other forums about long wait times for new boats being shipped from manufacturers due to shortages of Yamaha motors and the new Mercury motors.
