Percent driving off the lot.....Not really though. Seems like 15 yr old used sleds are more valuable now than they were then.
B = BAIL = BustO = OUTA = ANOTHERT = THOUSAND
I could make money on my 6 year old Hewescraft right now...Not a great market. Aluminum prices are high. I would buy new over used. Prices aren't that different. Raider is a good boat. Ive owned two hewes, basically the same as raider since the owner's where once business partners and split year's ago.. hard top all day long..my first hewes was soft top and now I have a full cabin. Protection from the elements, both sun and rain. Lockable door is a piece of mind for secure gear storage. And I can sleep on it. The extra weight is nice to rides better than a lighter soft top version.
