It is nice to have a forum to share experiences etc with dealers. As we know not all dealers are created equal. This is not a thread to bash Stratos boats as I have personally owned three of them. This is a way where we can share our good, as well as less then perfect experiences. I know Stratos is reading BBC threads as I recently attending the Worcester Fishing show In Mass and spoke to a rep from Stratos. I shared with him my experiences with my local dealer. I told them the areas where my dealer excelled as well as the areas and ideas I had to make improvements from a customers perspective. I was surprised when my local dealer called me and tried to address my concerns. The first call came from one of the dealerships salesman, who also fishes with me in my local club. I explained my concerns but also told him that I would appreciate a call from someone who's name is on the dealership as it is a family business. Two weeks went by and I received a call from the owners grandson, who wanted to make things right with me. He also invited me to the dealerships open house and said we want to see you back in our dealership again. During this open house they would have factory reps from Stratos, Evinrude and Lowrance. I am writing this because in the big scheme of life we are all human. Differences can be worked out if both sides are willing to discuss them. My hats off to Stratos for helping my dealer and myself reach a honorable solution to our professional differences. Has anyone had similar experiences like this? I think I am not alone. Like I stated earlier this thread wasn't started to bash Stratos but to pass along my experience with others. Thanks for reading this.
