If you’re thinking about buying a boat, don’t wait for Spring – Fall is the best time to buy. The market has leveled out, inventory is strong, and prices are more realistic than they’ve been in years.
The Market Has Finally Balanced
Over the last few years, boat buying was tough. Pandemic-driven demand created shortages, long lead times, and inflated prices. But today, that bubble has burst and the market has returned to reality. Inventory is strong, prices are fair, and buyers once again have real choice. Builders have caught up on production, and quality pre-owned boats are available from owners upgrading or changing their plans.
Why Waiting Can Cost You
When spring hits, so does the rush. Demand spikes, prices rise, and the best listings move fast. Yard schedules also fill up quickly, meaning it can take months to get your new boat serviced or customized. Buying now gives you the advantage – better selection, more negotiating power, and time to prepare before launch season.
