"List" prices on boats do not exist. Tracker is the only company that publishes prices. Marine business is different than the car business. Most manufacturers forbid dealers from publishing prices over the internet.

You will not find what you're looking for, sorry.

Wader, When I bought my boat I did all my research online. When I found the boat I really wanted I went to the dealership to look at in person. Then I when back to the internet and E-mail the sales department of all the dealers within a few hundred miles, that sold that boat. I ask them for their best price and had them e-mail me a price quote to take to my credit union. Then I started working the dealers telling each one that I could get it cheaper at the other. I did have to show the printed out e-mail quotes to a few. After all this I went back to the local dealer and got him to sell me the boat for the price the other dealers quoted me. But like I said it took a little doing. I bought my boat in June of 2003. It is a G-3 1652, 40hp Yamaha T&T, Minkota 40lbs troll, Humminbird LCR, 12 gal tank, two batterys, Motor toter, tie downs, Every thing ready to launch for 7,500.00 Drive out. I gave him 2,000.00 cash and walked out with a smile. I saved over 2,000.00 from the price the guy quoted me when I went and looked at it just about 3 weeks eariler. Shop around if you plan to buy new. You can get a deal if your willing to talk and shop.
