We also decided to include the ****** "prepaid maintenance plan" for $3,810.

The cover was not on the boat as we were told that traveling that distance would not be good with the cover on the boat. Remember that this boat was presented and sold as a "NEW BOAT". Here is the list of items that we found AT the dealership 1 - Missing lug nut on the trailer wheel - Dealership fixed on site 2 - 3 different wheels physically on the trailer - Dealer stated "it is because it is a "Demo" - We reluctantly accepted 3 - No fire extinguisher on the boat - Dealer stated it doesn't come with one 4 - Back seats torn - Dealer stated it would be better to "warranty" this at our local dealership as they would have to keep the boat or ship the seats Found at home 1 - No garbage can - Dealer stated it does not come with that - research show it DOES come with the boat 2 - The cover is torn on the nose (BIG HOLE) and on the arms of the tower - Dealer will not replace offered to sell us one at dealer cost of $875. IT was advertised WITH a cover and nowhere in the description did it say it was damaged. 3 - The 10h service and 55h service was NOT DONE - Dealership says they sent a $500 check not received and we have no written doc saying it will not impact warranty
