How long to your local Nautique dealer?

[AbunDiga909]

Jeff's dealer map inspired me to do this.

I'll start, its about 40 min. from door to door.

If you travel more than 5 hrs, I'd be interested to find out how far you're willing to drive. Thanks in advance.

I'm just over four hours from White Lake. I could go to LGWS, but I have a relationship with White Lake, and I'll continue going to them, even though they're about an extra hour and a half away.

Yeah but when you get your next boat, it will have to be from LGWS I guess, b/c of the territories, right?

This seems to be that "gray" area I was talking about in your other thread.

It's about one hour for me to the oldest (50 YEARS) and IMHO best Nautique dealer in the world. White Like Marine.

I am lucky in that my location doesn't fall into any dealer's territory. In the past, that has allowed me to go to any dealer that I want.

Which location do you go to? I have only been to the Burlington/Graham location, not their main facility that is actually at White Lake.

I deal with the home dealership at White Lake. I have been to the BG location and have talked to the folks there on EORG, they are very helpful. I bought my first inboard boat from WLM in 1990, it was a used 1989 model Mastercraft ProStar 190 with the Power Slot. It was a great boat for us back then and introduced me to a grat dealership.

Less than 15 minutes from Taylor's Boats. Great people, great boats.

45 minutes from home and 20 minutes from the lake to Mid Ohio Nautiques in New London, OH. 45 minutes from home to Mid Ohio Marine in Dublin, OH. Check them out, they will treat you right.

1time17, where can I get some good slalom and/or hydrofoil lessons there behind some Nautiques?

RE: Re: RE: How long to your local Nautique dealer?

www.jacktravers.com for slalom skiing

Thanks ski. Seems like a real nice place--a lot nicer than the guy that gave me lessons in Palm Beach.

Only problem is I think skiing behind a 196 will just spoil me a little too much...

Can anyone elaborate on the CC territory? I live almost equal distances from 3 CC dealers. Am I really restricted from buying a new boat from only one of them? I'd really like to get my next boat from a different dealer than my first.

If you are that close, it probably isn't that big of a deal. Just show up to all three of them. Let the dealers worry about the territories. Not you!
