Now its getting crazy!!

OK, so Supreme should be considered in same market as Moomba, IMO. How does this boat get to the >130K .

Is this the trend?. That is close to what I paid for my SL! Supreme is supposed to be an entry level. These boats were the answer for those who did not want to go to the six figure and yet still wanted a decent surf boat, albeit still expensive by any measure, but not exorbitant. If this is where this is going, this will really narrow the market to an ever shrinking few.

The yearly price increase is aggressive, your SL now is a $170k+ MSRP.

The Zeus boats are meh for $130k

The price of wakeboard boats have increased far more than anything I’ve ever seen..to the point it’s ridiculous. Goes hand in hand with folks on here telling others to just go with the new/latest/better boat- it’s only $8000 more. That’s apparently the same attitude the boat manufacturers have...its only 8k..30k..50k more..Here is a picture of a Mobius at the boat show in (2012?) it was only $44k! If we ever get into a 2008-09 type recession we may see some manufacturers go under.

I got into a discussion with someone else on a tige forum on this same topic and politely reminded me that it's marketing 101 supply and demand. and we're all paying it.....

we almost traded our old boat in '14 on a supra sc in WI and pretty much fully loaded it was going to be in the 70's. today sa decked out is what.. 130?
I get all the tech they have but in some instances the tech is a wash in both builder supply pricing and ease of assembly compared to what it was replacing......
back in '06 bought a sportbike for 6500 cash. same bike today is running 12-13k. by that logic i should be able to replace my old supra launch20 with a SR in the 80's but last time I checked it's north of 120 once optioned.

I hate to say it and don't wish it... but a market correction really needs to put pricing back into check. it really has gotten silly. it's like boats are made of bitcoins......

When is the last time boat prices dropped?

I mean new price MSRP drop?

My point is they never go down.

And I get it, there should be a yearly increase partly based on tech and partly on inflation, but man, I bought my Mojo NEW in 2015 for 69K. It is evident wakeboat price increases have grossly outstripped income growth. That, in long term, cannot possibly be sustainable. I fear a correction will be forthcoming and it is going to catch those who are paying these stratospheric prices with their pants down. Seeing how much an SL is going for now, I feel like I got a bargain. I offered my brother in law my Mojo for 55k in April when I took delivery of the SL, he turned it down, he is now on the market and looking, after seeing these prices, he tells me he should of bought it. Well, no S***.

I had a Supreme quote that listed MSRP and selling price. It was about 20% less. I think they really artificially inflate the prices to create the illusion of a good deal.

I bet this sells for 106K plus another grand or two in fees.

[Precious Roy]

My stocks/investments have increased more than boats % in the last 4 years...just thinking out loud...

[RUGER761]

Boats are no worse than trucks or campers or anything for that matter. As fast as things seem to be selling right now, especially anything outdoor related I doubt we see a ceiling very soon on pricing.

[MJHSupra]

Posting the list price of $133k for a Supreme is one thing, selling one at that price is different.
