With that said I would look for a bit more shuffling....
One of the marinas we worked with when ordering our Harris a few years back mentioned that they were losing/walking away from a boat line because they were expected to order too many boats to maintain the relationship.

It sounded like those expectations had changed throughout their history together and that it was a bit of a bitter process.
