I now offer new boat financing!

When I opened the Fountain Dealership in Lighthouse Point years ago I had the inventory floorplanned through a bank called CIT. I then sent them all my boat financing deals end held the point spread on the finance reserve. It also enabled me to sell the Quicksilver Warrantys and have them financed along with the boat loan. I ran the boat dealership just like a car dealership and was not only earning $$$ on the profit of the boat but also the financing & warrantys. There's not alot of profit in the boat bus. because they don't turnover as fast as cars so you really have to capitalize on anywhere you can earn $$$. (and for you guys that are frowning on this, earning a profit isn't bad word.....try risking your $$$ on stocking boats and then hopefully selling them at a profit before the next year models arrive!!

LMAO!!!:banana: I'm sure Randy is more than willing to sign you up on the dotted line!! On a twenty year term it's only about $100 for every $10,000 you need to finance.....assuming you could by the Flamer for only $40,000 it would only be $400/month!!!:bigthumb:
 
I want one like this one.

But without the horsehead.

The flames were around $1600 extra last year. I just looked, and they're not on the new option list, but I think I can still get them. I sell all Checkmates at 10% over dealer pricing and offer more custom touchs.
