    All the alumacrafts I looked at are all mk/bird, but I believe it depends on the dealer. I don't think the boats ship with anything on them.

    You can get them installed at Ranger but do yourself a favor and find someone that knows what they are doing and pay them. They can furnish the product and take care of you after the sale.

    Most boats, are equipped at the dealership. If ordering a boat, the dealer should accommodate your wants. However, most dealerships equip the boat's, with the most cost effective units. And you no longer have a choice. Unless, like I stated, you order.
    I have had some dealings about buying a new boat. Every boat that I liked was not in stock, as a basic boat. Ordering a new boat wasn't practical, cost wise, for me, but not for the dealer. The two in my area rig them, as soon as they can. I believe that you are better off, purchasing your own electronics. If you know of a reputable service shop, have them do the install, they will back up their work. Good luck.

    I agree with pfisher ...... I had to re-do many of the things I had had the dealer install. I'm sure there are some good at it, but I would just do it myself or have a good installer do it.

    When I bought mine nothing was mounted so I told them I would install it. Glad I did seen some bad installs also I could have any brand unit I wanted.
