Tell Us About Your Crazy Boat Show Deals

[spenchey2]

it sounds like a pain in the *** how do you get it to the shop.call the dealer and tell them by the way my boat needs serviced could you bring a trailer i dont know about that.

I call them up and say hey I need this done to my boat and if I can I drive it over there, dock it on the service dock walk in and say there is my boat what time can I come get it? They tell me and about 6 hours to 1.5 day later i can pick it up. When they pull it out of the water they use someone elses trailer that is at the shop. Not my problem there is no specific trailer for it.

2006 24ve, tige speedset, 340 vortec, synchrotec, stainless steel package, bimini, windscreen, bow cushion, dual axle trailer, rival ballast system, tower wired for speakers), regular factory stereo (modified after we got the boat), full cover. 56K, pretty good deal.

Yep, the guy I bought mine from lives on the lake and had it in a private dock but still kept the trailer just in case he sold it (which he did )

I saw an all black Malibu Vdrive loaded with stereo and had corvette all over it with an LS1 corvette engine for 40k. I wanted it soooo bad but the wife pulled in the reins.

I keep the boat on a lake as well and dealer recommended a trailer. While I only used it 5 times in 2 years with my last boat it made it easier to sell and provided storage when they lowerered the lake for maintenance. Also made it a lot easier for warranty and service work.

So while on the topic, just ordered an 07 24ve with a trailer. Middle sound package(amp xtra speakers, sub, no tower speakers), stainless package, tower, cruise, 340 hp, remotes, mooring cover. $59k Told this was better than boat show and I've been really happy with the dealer. Good deal ?

Well the thinking behind it was like this. My summer house is on the lake so i have a hoist and they would be not point in getting one becuase i'm on the lake. I got five years free storage so i don't need a trailer to store it, even know it would be fun to go some where with it, i don't want to mess with it that badly. So it was better for me to go with out the trailer and also cut ALOT off the bottom line.

I think someone else was asking how i got the boat with out the trailer. It is an option to not get the trailer, so thats how i didn't get it.

Can always use are trailer spenc.
