K Albus	posted 10-04-2011 10:54 AM ET (US)             Can you give some examples? The only price I was previously familiar with was the price for the 235 Conquest, and that does not appear to have been recently changed.
joedag1	posted 10-04-2011 07:04 PM ET (US)             I could not quote exact figures example 150 ss was 17,000+ Now it is 18,000+ I purchased a 130 ss in June I know the new msrp is higher. I just checked them a week ago .
joedag1	posted 10-04-2011 07:15 PM ET (US)             The price of accessories has also gone up ex.- a bimini for a 130SS went from $999.00 to $1091.00 this week, along with many other accessories . Trust me I have been checking.

chuck21401	posted 10-06-2011 03:05 PM ET (US)             Boston Whalers are expensive, no doubt. I hope that BW continues to sell expensive boats even during the recession. That will keep them...and their dealer network in business. But at some point I agree, they will price themselves out of business.
