Since the covid buying spike of 2021, the markets for boats, RV’s and motorcycles have been in a gradual decline. Some segments falling faster than others with a few, very few, areas of strength. Fast forward to 2026.

I see the tide turning in many areas of brokerage boat sales. The sales activity has increased and the number of available boats available falling slowly.

Boaters have been staying on the sidelines in general watching how all the US and world uncertainty plays out. Have they decided this is the new normal and life is short? Appears so.

Not a 2021 market of bidding wars. Popular boats turn over in 60-90 days instead of 6 months.
