Good points Jon. One other thing that I forgot to mention that works against my prognostication is the weak dollar. Depending on your location, buyers from other countries may help prop prices up as the exchange rate makes buying in the US more appealing. At least 3 of the boats I've looked at, (2 of them Catalina's) were also being looked at by folks from north of the border according to the broker, though all are currently still on the market.
