The WORST buying experience! Drove 3 hours to buy a boat that I was told in great condition and when I took it out in the water the first time it would hardly start and then filled up with water as there was a 3rd plug in the engine compartment that the dealer never told me about and never put back in. I am a woman and had another girl and children in the baot with me, as people helped us get it onto the boat trailer the crank broke and we had to harnis the boat up with a pulley. The carb was shot, needed all new transmission, new bilge pump, and when I called the dealership the owner told me not to cry over spilt milk and I could bring it back but they were only gonna pay for half the transmission to be fixed and no reimbursement for anything else. After I took the boat back to be fixed the cost was more than I was quoted and then the next time it went into the water the starter went out. The problem was not just the boat but the way I was treated and how far I had to drive to deal with it all 3 different times. I own my own business and would never treat a customer like this or put them in danger and then just not care! Now Im into this boat over $3000 than its worth and Ive got to use it once.
