I wouldn't call it not being a repeat customer. the market is slowing and no dealer wants to get stuck with a boat that they can't peddle easily regardless of a new purchase.
someone else mentioned earlier that with what these cost now most are going to hold out for the exact boat they want new or used and your boat is now appealing to the exact pool of buyers rather than the masses of the last couple years taking anything because it's all that's available. dealers know this.
selling private party can be a good way to go DEPENDING on the situation. netting an extra 25k on a boat sale can sound appealing BUT if your tax liability on that deal now goes from 95k difference to full boat price, here in nevada you now ate up half that profit in tax loss not even talking about your time dealing with all the tire kickers and working the sale. lots of moving parts to consider.
