Default Maiden Voyage........Update....`
The salesman that sold me the boat called today..........owner of the marina had him call and tell me that if the motor needed serious repair to call them, that they wanted to help me out..............I only called them the One time to tell them what happened. I was sure they'd tell me to frick off, but there ya go. There ARE still some stand up folks in this world..................Still no word from mechanic as to whats wrong w/ it, but I'm patient............Tim

Not to be harsh but do yourself a favor and get your boat away from master marine.I had a motor that came from them that they welded the flywheel nut on! Im not trying to talk trash,I know this for a fact.Do yourself a favor and bring it to ANYONE but master marine.

Sorry to hear that man,I had a feeling that was the problem after you said it died and when you tryed to re start it the starter would not turn it. Try to make sure they use all mercury pistons,bearings,and seals,not aftermarket.If you need any help let me know bro.

The place you bought the boat from would not step up to help you.

Besides offering parts at cost, they said "thats some bad luck you got"..........I'll be talkin to a lawyer later about it..........I don't think it was right to advertise it as only 49 hours if it wasn't.........To me thats like rolling back the odometer on a car to sell it for more...................the low hours was the BIGGEST selling point for me..........there were a few newer models with more hours, they were even closer to home, but I passed on them, AND they were cheaper!!!!

I hope that you can beat them into a corner! I would start advertising their name on EVERY site you can find. When they ask you to stop, tell them you will when they right what they wronged. You may be surprised at how quick they respond. I'd put an ad in their local paper in the boat section of the classifieds. Run them under the bus! Remember, it's not slander if it's a fact.
