Re: $ vs. Euro for purchase of French Cats

It all depends on your appetite for risk. At these levels buying a Euro boat has never been better for those with $US. We could see another Euro plunge based on Greece and the general revaluation...

Re: $ vs. Euro for purchase of French Cats

I like your thinking. As far as a bet goes a good Australian wouldn't miss an opportunity of betting on two flies crawling up the wall. :biggrin:

Re: $ vs. Euro for purchase of French Cats

Hi Barra,

Its based on a few things. First the Euro gas traded above the Dollar artificially for many years. While the US market isn't perfect it is still far more dynamic then the Euro Zone....

The large banks are saying that the Euro will go...

Re: $ vs. Euro for purchase of French Cats

Even large German Banks are now predicting parity of the Euro with the Dollar. Deutche Bank says within the next six months. I say within the next six weeks. Any one willing to say when they think...

Re: $ vs. Euro for purchase of French Cats

Sorry to rain on your parade but a stronger dollar will make most of what the US consumes cheaper. Including boats. What we are seeing is a rush of money into the safe haven of the US. Do not...

Re: $ vs. Euro for purchase of French Cats

Yes but pre-owned price falls will have a dampening affect on new prices as well. This is a classic study of the effects of capital pricing in international markets.

Re: $ vs. Euro for purchase of French Cats

Sorry but won't work. You will see that the lower Euro pricing will force the prices in the Carribean down. Also the market isn't just driven by the well off retired market but the entrepreneur...

Re: $ vs. Euro for purchase of French Cats

Sorry guys to rain on your parade but if its a pre-owned Euro made boat than its coming down in price for US$ buyers. It will remain around the same price for those using Euros. The only caveat is...

Re: $ vs. Euro for purchase of French Cats

HI BelizeBound. No I am not that familiar with the Charter deals out there. The one you detail sounds interesting and could be a good way for a person to end up owning their own boat within 5...

Re: $ vs. Euro for purchase of French Cats

If you are importing finished goods or manufacturing say in Asia and then importing you will benefit from a high relative US Dollar. This is basic economics. Given the dependance on overseas...

Re: $ vs. Euro for purchase of French Cats

As things become more desperate economically in Europe discretionary spending on toys will be impacted. That means less new boat orders from Euro customers and more used boat sales. Add to that the...

The euro fell to $1.0839 in late-afternoon trading in New York, its lowest level against the dollar since Sept. 4, 2003. The euro recovered slightly to end the session down 1.7% at $1.0843 in its...

Re: $ vs. Euro for purchase of French Cats

How low can the Euro to US Dollar cross go? The answer is a lot lower if historical pricing has any relevance. Of course getting to “a lot lower” may take some time and requires a special set of...

Re: $ vs. Euro for purchase of French Cats

Which raises another question. Can I have a private distillery on my boat? If I do the distilling in international waters would it be legal?

With the money I would save on liquor and the...

Re: $ vs. Euro for purchase of French Cats

I've discussed this with a seasoned broker and he agreed with me that the drop in the value of the Euro will impact the sales price of used boats in the USA. Used boats for sale in Greece or Spain...
