Just got this in my email. WTF? Just a Chatlee thing?

I saw an add on this as well recently. Thought it a bit soon. Dorton arena is small. Could be a one man show ?!?
 
I haven't paid attention the past couple of years but we used to have 2 boat shows in town with one being at the Fairgrounds. In Dortan and the other Expo building. Always was pretty lame.

Not sure was this one is. I did find this below. Not sure why Chatlee would be at an RV show ???

North Carolina RV Dealers' Association RV Show in Raleigh

February 20 - 22, 2015, at the Raleigh State Fairgrounds
 
The fairgrounds in the brick building next door to dortin arena. Thats were the boat show was in the past (small/cramped). Dortin arena is the building with the funky roof. Old bb-ball center

Dortin. Dortan. Dorton....??
 
I have been over there where they had boat shows in the 3 buildings. Dorton (or whatever) and the 2 metal Expo buildings just to the west. Not the old brick building.
 
part 3? really?

Thats a very toit building for a boat show
 
Perhaps Chatlee should talk to a customer when he shows up at the boat show with his checkbook in hand. I literally had my checkbook in my hand and they just ignored me. All for the best, I got a good deal from a good dealer and am a happy Yamaha owner!
 
Yeah that was my experience in 2007 too. Bought elsewhere. They haven't changed.
 
When I was looking for a new 212x in 2012 Chatlee kept trying to sell me a used V6 Stingray. I took my business to Performance East in Goldsboro and got exactly the boat we wanted for a few thousand less.
 
Performance East FTW! I have bought 3 Polaris ATV's from them and my AR240. They will continue to get my business. The owners just built a house in Emerald Isle and we see them on the water often. I have yet to visit their new location, but have been by it several times on the way to Busco Beach ATV park.
 
Yeah that's who I bought from, actually out of the old Greenville location. I'd love to find the cash to buy a new 24 and I would be heading over their way for sure...
 
I tried dealing with Chatlee before I bought my Seadoo. They lost my business then and forever. I guess if they weren't so *insert random negative adjective here* I'd be in an AR190 right now anyway. Everything happens for a reason...
