Agreed CVAGS20.
I talked to someone in a '22 Paragon yesterday. Said he was in it for about $285k.
He is not going to leave anything on the table on the resale there, in 1 year or in 10...
Leave anything on the table, does that sound right? Let's go with he will probably make a profit on that deal.

I'll join the priced-out-of-market chorus. My poor negotiating skills got me to within $20k of a 2022 S23. Corporate greed saved my bank account and maybe even my marriage. Thanks, Nautique and giant public company dealership! Now, instead, I'm looking forward to buying a pandemic boat in the near future that has 25 hours and 2 years of dust. It could happen!

I demo'd a S23 and had the checkbook ready, unfortunately I just moved into a new territory in July of 2021 and I was working with a new dealer. If I was with my old dealer I would have a S23 in my possession. As it turns out I saved 40k and have a 2023 from another brand. On the plus side it has more features than the S23 and my wife likes it better anyway. The S23 is a great boat, but you can always shop around. You may find a comparable boat or similar in another brand.
