Will boat prices rise?

I wonder if boat prices will start to rise, due to demand as more and more people plan, (they say), to leave The United States, because to uncertainties brought about by the election.
A boat is an ideal way to leave a country, that is, assuming you can sail, otherwise it could be a short trip.
You can go where you want, and when you get there, you don’t have to find a place to live. If you don’t like it, or the neighbors, you can move. And (hopefully), after four years, you will be able to come back the same way you went.
Yes, boat prices will definitely rise this year.

Only on new boats that have to use steel made in the USA.

Those that spout-off and those that actually do has to be 10,000 to 1 or more. BTW, I haven't heard of any one of the Hollywood phonies backing up the moving van and I don't think that George Soros is paying for boats, just protests.

If I heard you correctly, you are saying President Trump is going to make sailing great again! Things just keeps getting better and better!

Gosh! I hadn’t thought of that Robert. So I guess Republican voters with a submarine, (who presumably are not planning to abscond - yet), will make a killing. They just can’t stop winning can they?
Unless….or more like when, the boss issues an executive order to confiscate them, to melt down to make pipes.

Yikes, didn't mean to hit a raw nerve. I was just having some fun. When announcing the XL pipeline go ahead DT issued an order that it had to be built with US steel. The fact that the bulk of the pipe was already sitting on site must have escaped him.
Anyways I'm a Canadian and happy that the pipeline will be going ahead
