29 CB or 31 CB

[Bobby Beard]

I'm looking at purchasing a 29 or 31 CB new. Question is how do I know if I'm getting a good deal one one? With cars and trucks I can visit other dealers. Would the process be the same? Do some dealers discount more than others? Is there a better time of year to buy?
Any information would be great. Would hate to find out later I spent 30k to much lol.

Btw I did get a quote on a 29 CB for 279k as the "boat show price".
Does that sound right?

Hi Bobby,
Talk to Tommy Gaston at Seagate Marine, he has two new 31CB in stock at a great price. Seagate is no longer a dealer but he will back any issues on any boat he sells. I've known the Gastons for a long time and you won't find a more honest and thoughtful person and dealer. The 31CB would be our choice if we were moving up. Good luck with your search.

Tim and Donna
Gratitude

We bought a 2014 R31CB used from Seagate and service was great. We visited St. Pete Boat show and compared many R and and Cutwaters. Edgewater Yacht sales folks were great. We bought used from Gaston due to closer location and great deal. 31-29 I love the helm door on the 31, it allows single handing the boat! New 29 does not have. Not sure I would pay extra for CB or 3rd helm in cockpit, rarely use.
