And buying the top of line 242x-E series boat. I love all the new upgrades and the boat is beautiful. I realize I will take a hit on my trade but how much? When I bought my boat new, I paid 4k under msrp. What is my boat worth on a trade in? I only have one dealer close to me. Thoughts?????
 
You will be 10K ahead if you sell it yourself. Trade on a boat is much different than a car.
