That is true. The store with its own zip code, Wal-vania's Tampa store
on Dale Mabry Drive is selling smaller Sea Ray and Boston Whaler units.
I have taken note they ARE NOT selling Bay liners. Costco is selling
several brands of boats too.

How many Bayliners does it take to line a bay?

Is a Bayliner anything like a swimming pool liner?

Will both work underwater?

It is a good thing Bayliner doesn't make an inflatable. You would need
to buy stock in fix-a-flat.

feel free to add to the list! grin

Bayliner's "fix" for this problem was to put 500 pounds of ballast in
the stern. Make sure your boat is retrofitted before purchase.

============================================

Yes, true story but that was only half the fix as I recall. The other
half was to put a warning plaque on the flybridge about carrying
excessive numbers of people on the bridge. With too much weight up
high (maybe 4 people) the boat would capsize to the outside of a
tight turn.

Another nifty design feature from today's volume and pricing leader.



Hehehe. I love it. Bayliner; the Wal-Mart of boats.


Actually, I believe Wal-Mart was selling Gen-Mar products in some test
markets.

Nevertheless, you're comparing a manufacturer to a retailer. Wal-Mart
provides the same things you buy in other stores, but for less money. Hey,
if you don't mind purchasing Yo-Zuri's, Penn SS's, and Sabiki's for 50% more
elsewhere, then have at it. I spend plenty at my local bait shop. However,
if I'm buying in bulk (Sabiki's, etc), I shop WalMart.

BTW--Sam's Choice bottled water is not only the cheapest and best-testing,
it freezes very well without exploding the bottle...which is very convenient
for icing the cooler.
