My wife and I have a 2007 Monterey 250cr that we purchased new in spring of 2008. We have had many great years and countless memories we will cherish forever. As our family has grown and our type of boating has refined, we are currently looking to up-size into the 33 foot range.
After speaking to members at our marina and research including boat shows, the Sun Dancer 330 is on our short list. Friends that own Sun Dancers absolutely love them. Our local Searay dealer hasn't been very helpful in our shopping as the only thing he wants us to do is put 250k on the table and then I'll act like a care. We have been sent to a few different boat shows by the dealer just to find that the 33 isn't there. He can't show me one besides a picture and an unwillingness to even give us a brochure.
We are in Florida as I type and called the factory so we can see a 330. " You need to go to Daytona and see the dealership. Only after you come to a purchasing agreement can we let you see one. We are sick and tired of waiting our time. " was the response I received.
Am I the only one that has these sort of issues? Is this common practice with Sea Ray dealers? I am surprised as to how hard it is to do business, answer questions, and get the information we need to move forward. I have invested a good number of hours and a handful of day trips just to feel no closer to getting a new ride.
