The Virginia boat buying market and pricing for boats, which went off the charts during the COVID pandemic, is returning to normal. Boat demand in Virginia also decreased with the big increase in loan rates. Bottom line, Virginia boat sales and boat prices have cooled off a bit. The pandemic rose prices 20% and higher in our opinion. Today, you can expect to negotiate hard with a Virginia seller. Dealers are not selling as many boats today, the number of buyers decreased, and inventory is stacking up, so we grade Virginia as an A- for a time to buy.
