...on a 2006 anything? I'm curious to see if I got a good deal (I believe I did).

Our new FW's MSRP was $41,384.

In your opinion, what would be a good deal versus a great deal?

From what I've seen, and in particular with larger boats, a good deal is 25%+ off of MSRP. Anything better than that, IMHO, is great. Now, that being said, time of year for the purchase, dealer stock, popularity of a particular model, etc. all will come into play. I don't think I've ever seen a dealer even offer a boat for less than 10% off list. Now, how do you like the new boat?

We'd love to see pictures!!

I need to get some update photos posted, but this is one the day after we got it. We have hull #'s now. :)

We love the boat. There are some issues, mostly small, that need to be dealt with at the 20 hour service. The only big issue is the gelcoat; I have a post about that somewhere on this site. :D

We went to FL to pick up our 318. Picked it up for around 32% off MSRP. But after adding in the travel, vacation stuff and shipping,, total savings was right back to about 27% but the trip was worth it to cruise around for five days in the gulf. Like earlier stated 25% should be easy to get. Take care and by the way,, nice boat!

I found mine sitting brand new in the showroom late July 2005, and it is a 2003 package. Never run, brand spanking new 2+ years old. Dealer gave me 36% off MSRP, I couldn't pass up the deal :D
