Re: i thought buying a boat was fun!!!!

I agree I think it sucks buying a boat. There is no fun in it.

Try driving almost 3 hours to NY with a check in hand for a deposit and being told the boat was sold a 1/2 hour before You got there. Yet the sales guy refused to take a deposit on the phone.

But then he calls me 5 days later to tell me that guys credit is no good he can't get approved for the loan

So now i'm waiting to hear from finance co. and running back up NY tomorrow.

OH I had him drop another 8K off the boat first

Buying new boats is nothing but aggravation. Good Luck with your new boat.
