Hello!
I am in the market for a boat and very much in love with the Stingray and refuse to even look at anything else. Currently the financing on a used boat is horrible so have been looking at a brand new 09 185LS. With all the dealer incentives on 3 year old new boat the price I was quoted today was 16,800 (with out tax) but does include a trailer. Just wondering with everyone else's knowledge of this brand does this sounds like a good deal? Am I still going to run into financing problems being its an 09 vs 11 with how a bank would view this?
-I have noticed this boat doesn't come with the digital depth finder as an option, being inexperienced i am wondering how important this option is to aide in driving over unknown territory or getting to shallow risking lower unit damage.
Any insight on these as a first time boat buyer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Much for your time!
