Some of the dealers get a bit of a kick back from electronic and motor companies for displaying their products on their boats, so ensure you ask them what is their rock bottom price is.. See if they want to use it at the Portland Show or other local shows also for a discount to you.. Worth a try to save some funds.

If you're in the aluminum boat market - go to the Portland show! Way more aluminum boat options, Seattle more Tupperware boat optionsI will second this, bought my Boulton at the Portland show. When I bought, Portland was the last show of the season, as explained to me. So instead of dragging a boat back to the shop, sell it at a good deal. And a great deal I got! I would recommend buying any boat in Oregon, if the dealer knows what their doing. They will write up the bill of sale as such, to save you enough money, to finish equipping your boat.

Guess it depends what sized your looking for, but a lot come rigged with Electronics, heaters, etc.. Most times are included in the price for basically what a base model is. You got to settle with what is on it at the time.. Motors are generally under sized, but you never know...This is truly the way the show is set up.Note that if you purchase in Seattle and are gonna wait for them to show it in Portland before it is delivered to you that it still comes as it was when you purchased it in Seattle.My dad bought his this way,Got a great deal as the electronics were premium at a very discounted price.Problem was a few items were swapped out in Portland for whatever reason.The boat trailers that the boats are on at the show seem to be the best bargains at the show when buying the boat. :twocents:
