Well after a weeks delay in the sea trial and pickup of our new to us 240 da we went to the dealer to pick it up yesterday. After 2 months of knowing we were coming to get it they were not ready for us. We did arrive 1 1/2 hours early(imagine that) and let the dealer know that we were in town and would be back at the normal time. The salesmen was running around like a chicken. The boat was buffed and polished when we got back but the were still wiping the slop from the buffer off of the windows. The canvas was not cleaned and the cabin was not cleaned. We were also told that the trailer brakes were not working when they launched the boat. There were some other minor things that were also not taken care of. We did get to go out for our first ride. It ran great. It was a little windy but it handled the small chop very nicely. He ran it to a calmer bay for us to try it ourselves. After making figure eights for a while and getting used to the handling the salesman said he had a game he needed to go to and if it was ok if we headed in. My wife and I really felt like we were a inconvenience for purchasing the boat. We told him to keep it till Saturday as the dealer is having a spring open house and we were coming down anyways. So it looks like Saturday she will come home. I hope.
