To me its simple and moving boats is in their job description as prostaff, whether regional, dealer, or elite.They also dont have to spend time and $$$$ for preventative maintenance or upgrades with no return on investment. Current offerings change with model years, and they can pass on savings while keeping current with the market.The guys that buy new every season while taking terrific care of their rigs are few relatively speaking, and assist by keeping the manufacturer well informed as to what users desire from them. Just as fleets like rental car companies or contractors do with heavy equipment. They help form the market every year, and their equipment is highly desired.It takes dedicated individuals to do this IMO, and requires lots of their time and effort to care for their rigs, and keep themselves and equipment in excellent marketable condition, and they EARN these opportunities relative to effort expended. Me, Im more of a torture tester, and do it on my own dime. I just enjoy the opportunities, and appreciate a great product and company like BCB, and the people associated with them. Been in a Cat since 90, and hope to remain in one for life.As far as someone making $$$$ on their boats every year, I dont agree.
