Looking to purchase a Scarab soon. There are a limited amount available on the used market and the price is very close to the new prices. Can anyone share their experiences?
 
Just found out yesterday that a brand new 2023 285 I was once interested in has dropped from 180 to 120k!
Its on boattrader. Brand new. That's a crazy deal, and shows how much profit there must be in the game.
I think the market is turning to a buyers one again, so get new and be sure to get 20% off msrp

I saw thoses boats also. I’m going to contact that dealer next week if my deal doesn’t go through. Playing hard ball hasn’t worked out for sellers lately.
