Thanks for all the replies. The owner of Hideaway sent me a email and would be more than happy to talk about the situtation. In all due respect it was never my intention to single out the indivdual that I talked with. The only point that I was trying to establish was, what many of us encounter when considering a new boat. That many dealer's are more than egar to sell you a new boat, but truely turn a deaf year when it comes to trade in.

Let's all remember that every new boat will someday be a used boat ( 5 minutes after signing on the dotted line ). No real hard feeling's here just a little frustration with another BOATING incident.

That's Ok Drag. When I was shopping last year. I was insulted at a boat show when the sales guy said the boat I owned was junk and he acted as if I couldn't afford what I was looking at So I bought something else and sent him a picture of my boat and nice letter
