I'd take the 2000 off. I paid much less than cad2000 for the 5 yr coverage.

That poor 275. It's the bastard child of the lineup lol. I'd love to know just how many of those boats they've actually sold.

Who knows? I didn't read the fine print.

I wonder what Yamaha's criteria is for "tier A1" credit (in small print in these promotions). Are we talking like 800+ credit score?

Just talk to my local dealership the 2020 212X is going for 62 before taxes so I’m really not seeing a great incentive here

A1 is 720 or above. Going through this right now. Awaiting the check for my old boat which I sold last week. Anyone else dealt with these incentives beyond their advertised date? Put my deposit down last week and dealer says to not worry I'll get those incentives, but I work in cybersecurity.....I'm a paid worrier. LOL!

I just used the incentives but my credit score was 820. I didn't have any issues whatsoever and it was a smooth process. Dealer said that he has been selling a lot of boats ever since the specials hit.

Yeah I've already been approved and put a deposit down on a boat. My general concern is I can't move forward until the check/cash is in my hand for selling my boat. Boat is "sold" just waiting on the check. Which could technically push me beyond the 30th prior to me picking up my boat and finalizing the deal. They have a 1k deposit already from me, the dealership that is. I have a buy order quote as well. Just curious if they'd honor the incentives given the deal was predicated on them if the actual pick up date was beyond that date. Dealer has said they would, but like I said I'm a paid worrier. My job is to come up with every negative possibility and find ways to mitigate it. So that's what I do in my personal life too. Haha! Just don't want to get into a scenario where my boat is sold, get down there and they're like welp that was last week, those are now gone deal is 6% interest and I walk away boat less.

Did you sell private party? If so, I always recommend a wire transfer. Or an overnight-ed official check. Hopefully it gets to you soon!

Did you talk to your bank? Check holds are basically a thing of the past in Canada for customers with long standing relationships with their bank. Maybe you have a line of credit you can use while waiting for the check to clear?

Yup, sold private party. If it wasn't to a friend I would have given up already. LOL! Yeah we're hoping either wired to me or overnighted check as well.

I'd buy a 275SD in a heartbeat, but not at $130K plus trailer! LOL

I've been with my bank, and even worked there for 5 years, for 20 years. We closed our home equity which I could have just gone with that. Could buy my boat with a credit card, but in my research most dealers limit to like 5k you can use. Also in the slim chance my friend says oh deal fell through......I'd be stuck with 2 boats. LOL! Which I guess is better than no boat. So there's that. I'll approach that path if they'll allow it. Checked with my bank and they said they didn't see a problem as long as they could verify the check. He's going back and forth with his bank on what the hold up is. Asked for a manager today and things seem to be moving along. They're asking the same questions of him they've already asked which is semi frustrating. He's an essential employee so he's still working as usual. Doesn't have the luxury I do to sit at a computer all day.

We are closing on ours on Friday, May 1st and they included the incentives. So hopefully they will do the same for you.
