that suks...if dealer had ordered paint job and not you, dealer is responsible if you purchased new boat. Go after him.

Dealer did order paint, it was painted way before I even knew I wanted to buy a Fountain.Thats what I thought but dealer seems to think I need to take it up with Martin Bros.Not sure why but doesn't seem like good business.

Thank you! It's really a 1 ton in disguise . Works fine if you use your head and have a super trailer.

Thanks, the black looks even more striking when in the water. If we could just get a decent day up here I'd love to take ride before I have to put it away for the winter.

Great looking boat. Glad you got a great deal from East Coast Flightcraft. Im sure you will love it. The difference between good dealers and great ones, is the service they provide after the boat is delivered. Good price is one thing. Its hard to find a dealer that cares after the sale is over. Thats why when you find a good dealer you keep dealing with them. If Shogren switched brands next week, from Fountain to something else, say Donzi, Cigarette, ect. I would seriously consider what he was selling. Even if it wasnt a Fountain. I believe in those guys that much. Scott, Greg, and Bruce are true professionals in their field.

Thanks, I'm sure I will enjoy it once this mess we call winter goes away. When I was looking I did call Shogren and talked to Scott, they just did not have what I was looking for. He did seem to be pretty straight up on the phone, and I still check out their site, looking for the next one already . My understanding is that East Coast Flightcraft is the second largest Fountain dealer, and Shogren is a little ahead of them in the top spot. Based on what I've seen it is understandable why these two rank so high, and are both spoken so well of by the people at Fountain. Serves Fountain well when buyers feel they have been treated fairly by their largest dealers.
