    Why would what matter? I don't understand your question or logic.

    Because the.number selling has nothing to do with it being discounted or free. My point was respectfully you didnt have one.

    So you believe that the boats we see for sale are free, sold for profit, and then the pro is given a free boat again to do this all over again?

    In some cases yes. Sure most are disciunted heavily not free, but that has nothing to do with why they are selling. They are selling to cash out and start over either way.

    The "memo bill" is due on the old boat. So, he either has to pay for the boat (or finance it) and run it another year. Or, sell the boat and then get a new discounted rig to run the following season.
    "The man of system is apt to be very wise in his own conceit; and is often so enamored with the supposed beauty of his own ideal plan of government that he cannot suffer the smallest deviation from any part of it…He seems to imagine that he can arrange the different members of a great society with as much ease as the hand arranges the different pieces upon a chessboard.” Adam Smith, The Theory of Moral Sentiments

    Similar to a promissory note.
