The white male Baby Boomer has been the core of the boating industry for decades, buying millions of boats, engines and accessories. Each year, the age of the average boat buyer is about six months older than the year before, according to analysis by Info-Link.

Although the periods donât line up perfectly, thatâs much faster than the aging of general population from the 2000 to 2010 Census, where the average age increased only 1.9 years to 37.2 years old.

If that fee is $1,500 and the boat is worth $5,000,youâd probably be better off with a private sale.But beware: You may not really know the market as well as you think. There could be liens on the boat of which you are unaware, and they follow the boat. good broker will steer you toward an asking price that will attract buyers while giving you full value.
