Some dealers have such a good, diverse business, they don't rely as much on top margin for their boat sales. Being right on the lake has it's advantages as well. But one of the hallmarks of any good dealer is service. If a dealer for any make of car or boat is tough to deal with because you bought elsewhere, they're not a good dealer IMO. As with cars, I'd rather have a happy service customer than none at all.
It appears some have the perception that Thurstons is not good to deal with unless you bought new from them.
