Shep Brown’s

[Newbiesaukee]

Although there is an old thread regarding Shep Brown’s sale to Goodhue and another about service at Goodhue in Wolfeboro, I’m starting this one with regard to a recent purchase at Shep Brown’s.

We sold our 2001 Sea Ray 230...I love the Lake but just got tired of dealing with minor hassles. Additionally, our summer trip this year was canceled and we got a full refund on it including air fare. Anyway....my wife decided we “needed” a small boat just to putter around the islands. I was thinking Jon boat with 8 hp but “we” decided if she did all the research, she could buy whatever ( within reason) she wanted. After research, she “wanted” a 2020 Whaler Supersport 130. Well, it is small. The boat market is overheated and she couldn’t find one. Shep Brown had one but someone had put a deposit on it. A week later Shep called as the deal fell through so my wife bought it.

They were easy ( for her) to deal with, they had to add some options and we wanted it delivered to us; so we basically did a no contact purchase and the boat was delivered in a week as promised.

Of course, buying is the easy part and we have had no problems with it so far. But it is fun to drive and Shep’s made the experience easy. The jury is still out, but that is always the case.
