I would pay more money just to buy from them but they have nothing even close to what i want right now. I am planning on calling them after they return from the break and giving them a shot at finding me something.

Four Winns- #1 on my list- the funship looks like a fantastic boat.
Sounds to me like you've answered your own question. I'm on my third Four Winns, two of which I purchased at MVM. The buying and service experience are second to none. Matt's father Tom sold me mine. He has semi-retired but still has a hand in it. If you are going new, they will be able to get you whatever you want, certainly by next boating season. If you want them to try and locate a used one, that's probably a different story.

Melvin Village Marina's customer service index (CSI) is 100%, as rated by the factory. http://melvinvillagemarina.com/CSI.pdf Impeccable, to say the least. The disclaimer here is that they only work on boats that they sell. If you research previous threads on this Forum you will find that it was, and probably remains a huge issue for some people. It isn't an issue for me because I'm one of their customers. Good Luck, IMHO, you can't go wrong at MVM.
