[QUOTE="sll, post: 5443241, member: 15186"] As already mentioned, there are very few anglers getting a free boat. Even when I say "Free" that means they get to use the boat for the tourney season to return it to the factory at the end of the season to pick their next year model up. They don't get to sell the boat and keep the profits. There are different sponsorship levels and boat deals. Back when I was tournament fishing a lot years ago I got mine on a PD plan.....I would purchase a fully rigged boat for 20% discount under dealer cost, run it for 9 months and sell it for whatever I wanted at that time with full warranty to the new owner. I could actually make some money on it at the end of the year, save the new owner a few thousand from purchasing new from dealer, and have a full warranty to boot. Good deal for both me and the new owner. Today's discounts are nowhere near that and I know that Ranger supported staff are only getting 7% discounts......so you are only talking less than $6K on a $80K outfit. [/QUOTE]
