A few years ago I was looking for a specific model/color of a new Alumacraft tiller. I spent hours upon hours researching, figured I had called every dealer within 500 miles looking for exactly what I wanted. Nothing. Went to the boat show, asked one of the Alumacraft reps, and he was able to find it available, and exactly what I wanted in minutes. Called the dealer and put money down later that afternoon. If you’re in the market at all its a no brainer.
