I have been looking at late model used (2005-2008 309/310) catalina sailboats for about a year now and the "asking prices" seem to be much higher than what NADA says.
example:
I see most of the 2007+ catalina 309 with a asking price of 90,000-100,000
NADA Avg. retail = 66,000 and Avg. low retail = 58,000
I have seen a few of the Catalina 310's for sale for more than a year and they only sold when the price was dropped to appx. NADA price recommendations.
I want to buy a boat in the next year or two and like everybody else I don't want to overpay for it, especially in this economy.
