might want to check on that. we have been told over and over that there is no freedom until the next model year is released in june/july then all bets are off. that is all dependent on the integrity of the dealer you are calling tho... our boat came from 1500 miles away and salesman had to go check with boss before they would authorize the sale to confirm we were actually "x" miles away from nearest dealer to confirm we didn't have a "local".


personally, I get that boat businesses are booming BUT there is absolutely no excuse or reason to not be communicating with buyers or leads other than pure laziness. salesmen are used to seeing "x" leads a week and it's tripled. they know boats will sell and people will follow up with them so no reason to.
we shopped 5 dealerships while figuring out our next whip. only 2 ever followed up with us after the visit. not tough to send a quick call/text/email but they don't have to.

I would look elsewhere at other dealers and/or other brands if you are being asked to pay msrp. moomba discounts are not huge but typically in the 5-9% range seems be where most land and right now I would expect in the 5% range for a build and a tad higher if on the lot. it's what we expected when the dealers built out pricing out.
