Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

With the new additions of Outerlimits and Sunsation powerboats are they still a Cigarette Dealer? The latest OSO announcement mentions the new additions as authorized dealers but fails to mention Cigarette.

word is ------------------ NO

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

If they are not a dealer than why do they have no many new cigs there

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

:eek: :eek:

Unbelieveable!!!!

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

That was quick. . .

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

what's new, no big suprise out of the Cig stable. Everyone is going away.

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

because they were a dealer and now they are stuck in the bad spot of not being a dealer and trying to sell new boats....

who would buy a new boat from a place that isn't a dealer for that boat anymore?

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

:eek: :eek: Pretty crazy....

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

I wouldn't, but I hear they are selling them at cost.

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

they'll be gone now, Hurry!!

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

I was there today and they had many new cigs

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

I would dude, your buying the boat not the dealer unless you intend on having them service it, me being in MD and them in FLA, hell yea I would buy it and have service here.

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

Did sombody say seerrrrrrvice?? :evilb: :D

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

I was a baaaad boy that weekend :D

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

My brother spoke to Eddie C. today. Said Skip gave an ultimatum if Hideaway sells one Outerlimits, he's pulling the plug on their dealership. Seems like they were a top dealer for the Cigs. With the shuffling of Cig dealers nowadays, is Braver all there?

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

Hope he's not getting to BIG for his britches... :eek:

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

Actually, from all the latest boats, ads, and changes, skip seems to know exactly what he is doing! :cool:

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

Truthfully your right. Cigarette is bigger and better than ever!

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

if your getting it at cost sure, but if not i wouldn't, the price you pay for cigs i would want the customer service that you are paying for....

woodsy is selling them now, i would get it from him.. :D

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

At cost isn't much lower than retail, that's one of the reasons why almost all of the dealers have gone away....it's just not worth it it for them.

I wonder how long Woodsy will hang in there before bailing?? I'd bet that it won't be long. ;)

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

How many and who have gone away?

Martin - My understanding because Skip wouldn't acknowledge warranty work that was prior to him.

National - Obvious

Hideaway - ?

How many others? I wasn't aware of that many, and I'm not sure the reason is because cost isn't much lower than retail. Is that really the case?

BTW Craig, haven't forgot to send your poker run video back. Thanks. Neil

GOOD POINT.

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

We need to hang out more often. Thats just too damned funny

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

Whats the difference if he sells both i bought my first 38 from national and got hosed and he sold both i bought my 05 38 from pierre and never been treated better

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

What do they get for a new 42 with 1075's ???

And .... why would you buy from anyone but Philly ??? Right guys ? :D

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

Let me clear something up. Hideaway did not bail out on Cig. It was vice versa. Hideaway was talking to Outerlimits about becoming a dealer and Skip overheard this. He told Hideaway if you become an Outerlimits dealer you are no longer a Cigarette dealer. Well, they took on Outerlimits.

I would buy a boat from Hideaway without question. I have spent countless hours in the sales office and they are always very friendly to me even though they knew I'm was not buying a boat. We have several friends who have bought from them with nothing negative to say. They have a couple of new boats in stock which they are blowing out. If you buy one tell Eddie Lucky Strike sent you :D

LS JR.

PS-From what I understand they were Cigarette's top selling dealer.

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

Not so surprising, many of your car manufactures been doing that for years. they dont want competing brand lines sitting on the show room floor next to one another, such as Nissan and Honda or Toyota and Mitsubishi and i can understand the logic that the owner of Cigarette wants his product your main focus. Years ago fountain told Raymond's at LOTO that they had to choose between Scarab and Fountain, they chose fountain, goes on alot i would think.

later

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

Very true.

I don't think anyone is questioning the integrity of Hideaway at all. I've never heard a single bad thing about them. It's just that with powerboats having a solid dealer to help with miscellaneous problems is crucial. Getting a great deal is one thing, but I don't mind paying a little more for top notch service.

Being the top dealer can mean alot of things. Ordering alot of boats doesn't mean anything. National was the top dealer for damn near any powerboat, that will tell you how much that matters.....

Being AROUND for the long haul is what really matters to most customers.

I'll stick with Phil, thanks. If he bails, then I'll give a damn.

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

Phil is the exception, i think. Cig has what, a 1 yr. warranty. You rely mostly on the factory for warranty work, dont you?

$315k for a new topgun, not a bad deal.

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

Good luck on the warranty with them..

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

I was just noting the change. Too bad because he would have 3 great brands in three different price levels. Like Chevy, Buick and Cadillac franchise would offer. Think the dealership will survive just fine, OL and Sunsation don't have any other dealers within hundreds of miles. With the higher costs of financing, fuel, storage, and insurance I suspect the dealers will not want to be holding a lot of inventory of anything this winter!
Martin Marine has moved to Ocala, to get into the horse business?

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

Still doing boats! have some for sale, and more coming,fixing some, and having some fun with the horses..... :D

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

Those french canadian chicks can take on anything!!!!


:D:D:D

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

Naahhh you look normal to me!

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

Yup

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

it is a sad situation that hideaway and cig could not see eye to eye,i keep my cig there and it was nice to be with a cig dealer,but with or without cig hidaway has always taken care of me in a first class manner,and i know whatever boat hideaway sells you ,sunseeker,outerlimits,cig or 1972 18' donzi, hideaway will give the service you deserve. I hear outerlimits might be building a 70 + yacht........look out :D

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

Isn't LCM a dealer for Outerlimits, Cigs, Fountains, Skaters, etc?

Re: Does Hideaway Marina still sell new Cigarettes?
 

That's what I was just thinking.

Doesn't look as if he is taking to many new Cigs on. Seems as he sells them he doesn't replace them. More new OL and Fountains. I really wonder how he is pullin that off.

Probably sponsoring a lot of fountain boats helps keep them around.
