As a boater I compare RV used market sales with boat used market sales.
One huge difference seems to be that RVs are usually stripped down to as they were from the dealer, new. If it is not bolted on or screwed in it is not there except for the shorepower cord.
Boats, not little trailer boats, are different. It is more likely that the seller has all kinds of extras onboard, right down to silverware, linens, cleaning supplies, tools, spares, about everything except personal items & food. The term "Turn Key" means just that.
When the day comes to sell my truck & trailer that is the way it will go. I will not be selling to get another. I will take the personal stuff out but it will be sold "Turn Key". Put your clothes, your food in it & you will be ready to go stocked right down to spare landing leg parts, spare wet bolts for the springs, light bulbs for inside & all kinds of galley gadgets that the foodie DW has.
