Default New Boat Question

Hello,
So I am looking into suggestions / recommendations about a couple boat dealers. Alberta Marine in Nanton and Basecamp motors in Calgary. I am looking at either the Alumacraft or Lund brand as they have the boat layouts I am looking for in a boat. Now the question. Has anyone had any dealings with either of these boat places before? Just looking for some feedback, mostly on dealings after you have bought the boat and needed service or other things done. Being hearing lots of not good places to deal with. Thank you to any feedback.

Not a boat but I went through Basecamp for a sled last year. Sales guy Curtis was pretty good to deal with for me. Rylen and Erica were super easy to deal with also. He did listen and did followup after my purchase. I got no bad things to say about the staff or the process. I didnt have to go back for sevice so not sure about that aspect. And I love my sled. For a boat though I personally am a Lund guy.

Alberta Marine does all my service work on a boat I bought used private sale. Their service dep't has been great. I had been having trouble with my kicker motor, the last 2 times it was in, they worked on it for free. Not even ten bux worth of shop supplies.

Of course, they were having trouble keeping the kicker running, but they could have started replacing parts at my cost, instead they continued to try to trouble-shoot it to get the correct fix.

Clearly, I'll continue to recommend them until I see otherwise. Best of luck!
