Hardsided Boat Sales Slip Sliding Away

New boat sales of hardsided boats were off in June according to preliminary registration data showing sales of fiberglass boats falling 3.3 percent and aluminum sales flat. The data is from Statistical Surveys.www.statisticalsurveys.com.

The report is based on information from 19 states representing 48 percent of the recreational market. For the first six months of 2006, sales were off 4.9 percent.

Perhaps all the folks who are smart enough not to be buying fiberglass boats are buying RIB’s. That would certainly explain a few things here...
