The reason I ask is that I was looking through the for sale ads and hoping to find a good used boat. Everything seems so expensive.... I've seen 1978 boats for sale for $2k, or a 1992 boat with a trailer for $2500. These values seem extortionate.
Here's why I ask... I bought my first Laser in 1990 for $800. The 1978 boat was complete with trailer. The next boat was bought in 1992 for $800. This was a 1988 Canadian hull that was in awesome shape. All covers and both full and radial rigs.
I know that inflation is applicable, but jeez... its just a Laser.
By the way, I'm not complaining, just trying to understand. I currently have a 1997 hull that is fantastic, but I also bought it and the trailer for $250....
