I’ll be moving to Clear Lake, CA shortly and have a budget of about $65k. Honestly the Lynx looks like a great option, but I worry about resale if I decide to switch models in 5 years, especially considering the reputation of that hull being a bit difficult to balance and run. There’s also the additional factors of having 2 different Lynx hulls in the 2020 model year and it being discontinued due to the Puma and Caracal STS being superior hulls. After 5-10 years I would think the Pumas and Caracals that are just outside my price range now would be competing with my Lynx if I were to sell it.
i know guys selling their Lynx boats now have a bunch of money in them, but it seems like the value will really take a hit as these newer hulls get more common.
