I am concidering investing in a Crestliner/Mercury dealership. I know
very
little about the boats except they are mostly metal.

I would appreciate any comments about the boats from owners,
especially
about service and satisfaction.

Anyone else is welcome to put in their 2 cents too, but *** PLEASE no
politics!***

Here in Minnesota where Aluminum boats are very popular, Crestliner is
one of the top two or three brands. People seem to really like them. I
have heard nothing negative about the factory, located in a small town
in Minnesota (little falls, maybe?) or the boats. Seems to me that you
have one of the top combinations for aluminum fishing boats especially.
I think they also make some pontoons and other kinds of boats.

Is there a market for aluminum fishing boats where the dealership is
located? If you could get Lund also, that would be sweet. I bet if you
showed up at the factory, they would be happy to show you around.
