Industry Overview
Marine Market Update
Pricing in 2018 for most segments of the industry continues to crush previous years.
Compared to the May-June period of 2017, outboards were up 11%, stern drives were up 13%, and inboards were up 6%.
Personal watercraft pricing was similar to 2017 and 2016, but about 5% off the very strong peak of 2015.
Sellers should be enjoying an environment bolstered by positive employment and income data and a tight supply of used boats.
