Why not just find out wich bank has the boat then deal with them that is what a friend of mine did on an 08 42. Then you dont have to screw with SHADY A$$ dealers! It appears that there are no honest dealers left!!

Fuel load was fairly light, about 1/4 tank if I remember. there was three of us in the boat and the temp was in the low seventies. We had a tailwind and some good waves to get the hull loose. Probably ideal conditions. Last weekend after Desert Storm I topped out at 96 in calmer water and about 85 degrees, with a half tank of fuel.

I dont think it should matter what type of price break the guy got. if the boat wasnt ready for delivery it wasnt ready. as for batteries if the dealer would have called sayen they were shot I would be willing to bet he would have said change em out insteade of being surprised.
I had two friends there from Calgary Canada that flew down as well to share the moment (on their own ticket) that got hung out to dry as well.

Home is Edmonton, just a few hours down the road from you. We do most of our boating on Lake Wabamun-about 60 miles west of Edmonton. We get out to the Shuswap and Okanagan from time to time. Maybe we should hook up. I towed my 25 Nordic home from Havasu this trip so I can use it this summer.

10% is historically a very tight deal. I would RARELY do a deal for less. As an industry, you need to avg 17% to run a viable dealership. And at that rate, your not getting rich. Again, lack of knowledge. Not trying to break your balls, just reinforcing my prior posts.
u may want to open your eyes and look at our economy and rethink your 10% tight deal remark .
Sounds like Ragged Edge gots it going on ,congratz

As far as Ragged's comment, I totally agree that 10 is a BROKERAGE commission. When you buy a brokerage boat you get little if NO frills. So, yes my numbers still stand correct
