During the 2019 Chicago Boat show I met with the salespeople at skipper buds and considered buying…read morea demo unit they had in stock, however they did not have any photos of the boat. They talked me into making a $1000 "refundable" deposit and then drive within 2 weeks to Oshkosh WI to view and decide if I want to purchase the boat. I went to Wisconsin and was disappointed the boat was not as advertised and quite different then the new boat show model so I decided against the purchase. Till this day I have still not received a refund, which I told would be automatic if I did not move forward with the deal within 2 weeks. My latest email has enough nerve to blame me for not moving forward and states "I do not deserve a refund". That said I would advise people to be ware of doing business with skipper buds, as it's disappointing at best that such a large dealer operates in this fashion.

I stored my boat with them for the winter and asked them to check out a couple of problems I was having. Their service people couldn't figure out what was wrong. So no repair. I had also was assured before storing there that they get boats out early when the season begins. It was late May before the boat could be launched. When I brought in the boat in the fall it was clean. When I went to get some things off the boat in the spring it was filthy. There were even dirty footprints on the seats. When I complained they said they have no control over the elements and they don't wash boats. Unless you pay for that, of course. All that was after I decided to sell my boat through them. That's when more of the hidden costs came into play. They did things without asking me and then charged me for them. They have all kinds of positive sayings posted around the office acting like they approach things from a more grounded and connected standpoint. Don't fall for it.
