Anyone interested in buying a boat go to Fun N Sun in Hurst and see Fain Caldwell we purchased a Excel from him last week and have been up at Raybob for several days and this boat is all he said it would be and then some he gave us a fair trade in and was helpful and very knowledgeable about every aspect of the boat and he is just a friendly and personable person. It’s nice to have a quality product and a pleasant buying experience

Fain is damn good people. I usually buy through him. In 20 years he has never been anything but helpful, friendly and honest. If he tells me something about a boat then I know I can trust it.

I talked to him 18 months ago about buying a Skeeter and he was going to call me back "later". Still hasn't called me back.
I ended up buying another BassCat, I got tired of waiting on the callback.

Unfortunately my latest purchase from him was terrible.Lied to throughout the entire ordering process and did not follow up with questions I had about order. Also promised certain items when placing order that would be free , then tried to charge me at closing. I had a long conversation with the owner Jeff Gilbert about this salesman and the way he conducts his business. Not the first time this has happened!

Sales people and dealerships get one chance to impress me if it's a negative impression.
