Angry Problems with Fisher and JACO Marine

We purchase a new Pro Hawk 17 from JACO Marine and when we picked up the unit it was storming. I did not get a chance to check out the boat.

It rained almost all the way back to Arkansas and when I got a chance to check it I found the following issues:

- motor was gouged and scratched

- steering wheel was out of align

- decals were scatched

- side of boat was almost rubbed through from the side rollers

- cranking battery was substituted for trolling battery

- motor was 2 quarts of oil low

- back seat screws were stripped and seat coming apart

- when put in water boat leaked badly

- windshield was cracked

- sit down seats were gouged and scratched

We tried to word with JACO and Fisher to no avail. Finally got to the COO of Bass Pro who manfacturers the boat and will return it to the factory on the 8th of the month.

Bottom line watch if you try to make a purchase from JACO marine in Lawrenceburg, Tenn as they are not the same dealership as they were years ago.
