You won't be disappointed. If you are in Orange County going to Jim is a no brainer. I do all of my boating up in Sullivan county on Swinging Bridge. I'm pretty sure he has sold at least 4 or 5 of the Yamaha's out there in the last few years.
The one place I would absolutely stay away from is the Staten Island dealer. . . . . They were assholes pre-sale to me. Additionally, I've heard they turn terrible from the moment you sing on the dotted line and get locked in. Best of luck to you, and welcome aboard!
I've done some boating with friends in Sullivan on Swinging bridge quite a few times, and even kayaking, it's simply beautiful up there. Funny you should say that about the Staten Island dealer because those are the guys I was talking to at the boat show, & I gave them a real hard time. I kept pushing them close to dealer cost and they were pretty upset. I figured shoot for the moon, and then see what happens from there, doesn't hurt. When I was at the Yamaha area for the jet boats I'm wasn't really sure if other dealers including Patsy's were represented there. I just happened to be approached by the Staten Island guy. Well the boat show is over, we'll see if they even call me back. I'm definitely going to reach out to Jim.
