I tried buying my Cobalt from Thurston's, but the $20K difference was just too much to handle. I owned a Regal and actually was able to upgrade to a Cobalt for less than the Regal dealer could do for a lesser boat. Same with my Malibu, couldn't find anyone even close. Flightcraft sells too many boats and has too many locations for Lake Winni marinas to compete. You go to Middleton, MA and they put a deal down no one can touch and your done. No games no negotiating.

The guy I towed was sitting on a mooring landing for an hour trying to flag someone down. No one would stop. He had kids in the boat and they looked like they were frying. We went to see what was up and helped him out. Too bad more people can't extend themselves with a little bit of kindness.
