My top five is going to have Boston whalers going to be in there
0:04
For whatever reason, they hold their value forever. They, they just do, they hold their value
0:10
People love them. They are a really good haul. The brand as an overall package, it just has a strong brand name
0:18
They hold their value. Me, I'm personally only really a fan of the older whalers
0:23
So the seventies, eighties, those older boats like that, even some of the
0:29
nineties, the newer Boston whalers, I'm not that big as fan, not that big of a
0:33
fan of, but again, the brand holds its value over time period
0:38
Then the next one I'm going to say is going to be the pursuit
0:42
So pursuits. I am a fan of, I am a big fan of a pursuit
0:46
I love a tiara. I love a pursuit. They look nice. They ride nice
0:50
Then they hold their value for a very long time. And you can find quite a bit of them out there that need to be restored
0:58
So I'm going to say a pursuit all day. They hold their value and it's a great boat
1:04
I'm also going to say a contender. They hold their value and there's quite a few of them out there that need to be
1:09
restored and you can find them. I'm not the biggest contender fan
1:14
I like a pursuit way more than I like a contender, but they're an all right boat
1:18
And again, they hold their value. Grady white. I had to put on the list
1:23
They, they hold their value. There are a ton of them out there, especially older ones that need to be restored
1:29
And so when you get a restored one, there is a market for them and people like them
1:34
Then the last one that I'm going to put on this top five list is going to be a
1:38
Parker, even though I'm not the biggest Parker fan either, but again, they hold
1:43
their value and there's a ton of them out there that need to be restored. So it is a good, um, brand to go into now some honorable mentions
1:53
Well, actually you might be wondering, why didn't I say something like a CV? Cause everybody knows my favorite boat is a CV, but they don't exist
2:01
You don't, they, you can't find them. They don't exist. People that have CVS keep CVS and they just rotate around within the CV community
2:10
I guess you would call it. And they just don't exist. You can't find an old worn out CV that needs to be restored that
2:19
you're going to get on the cheap. They're hard to find. So if you find one and you can come across one, you better scoop it up
2:25
because it won't last long. Honorable mentions. I'm going to say Intrepids, Intrepids hold their value
2:31
Good brand, good boat. There's a lot of them out there. Formulas, Scouts, uh, Stamos, Stamos, same thing
2:41
Um, on the Scout brand. I mean, again, there's not as many out there, but they, they
2:47
hold their value, good brand. Uh, Hughes, they're also a little bit tougher to find, but awesome boat
2:55
It's more of a flats boat. Same thing as like a Maverick. So any of those great brand, they hold their value
3:02
And sometimes you can find them. There's not a ton of them out there, but there are, um, fountains
3:08
Chris crafts, uh, Don Z's and pathfinders. Those are going to be what I would say, brands that hold
3:16
their value over the longterm. So these are all brands that have decades of boats in production and been sold
3:26
So they have, you know, 40, 50, 60 years of models and they've
3:35
held their value over the long run. That's why I picked the names that I put on the list
3:40
