Rick - what is the story behind another new boat? Hope your dealer bailed you out of your mistake on the lake. er

Short story is that the dealer that sold me the Tahoe T-16 with the bad motor offered me $19500 it I traded it in on a new Tahoe T-18. So while at the boat show I saw another boat that interested me a 22 Stingray 182SC. I spoke with that dealership and told them of all my problems with the T-16 and the Mercury 75 HP motor. They asked me to bring it in to their techs could look at it. They fixed the last issue that I had that caused me to be towed back to the dock.
Their techs took the boat out and put it through it paces and they gave me a thumbs up that they would take it in on trade. They called me and offered me $26200 on trade. So, I then bought the Stingray. I felt it was the right thing to do to tell them of all my issues and not pass off a suspect boat on them. Their trade in offer was more than fair.
They are storing the boat for me until my delivery date April 15th. Oh yeah, the Stingray has a 115 HP Yamaha SHO outboard for power. No more Mercs for me. At least for now.
