Default Rainbow Marine

Rainbow is in Edmonton and they are very good, I have been dealing with them for boats since 1999. Talk to Udo @ 455-8480. They are now located at 14240-123 Ave. If you have any other questions about their boats and models from a fishermans standpoint, send me a PM, I can help you out as well as I am a Lund Pro Staffer for Rainbow Marine, and I used to work corporately for Lund.

Default lund buying difficult

My lund buying experience. No question in shopping for a lund Rainbow Marine was the cheapest in Alberta. Camrose and Llyodminster were overpriced. Lac La Biche's price was little higher than Rainbow's. I was told that service in the city is poor and that if I bought a boat elsewhere the boat wouldn't be serviced very fast.

Rainbow Marine would have been my close to home and choice place to buy, however if it wasn't for Albert at Lac la Biche I would have likely bought a princecraft. The salesmen I spoke with at Rainbow Marine knows nothing about boats. He was litterally reading me specs out of the brochure and he seemed as if he'd never been in a boat. Albert was very informative regarding both the lund and their competition. In the end I paid a little more for my boat than I could have gotten it for however Albert deserved the sale and got it.

Rainbow Marine was the cheapest I recieved. Albert refussed to match their price, but came close. I would have boughten from Rainbow initially, but I was brand comparing, and Albert was the only salesperson I spoke with that seemed to know the lund product. So I felt he deserved the sale, and I don't mind paying a little more from someone who knows the product and can assist me with any problems I might come across.

Default roger dodger

i have to agree 100% with dodger,i was treated like absolute crap by alberta marine and lund buying my first boat and i tell everyone i meet. i guess they thought i would never buy another boat (already ready to upgrade)or they just dont care whaen those wakeboard boats are flying off the lot.it was a long drive for months worth of hassle and the worst purchase ive made.

Well I don't know about that but I would look pretty silly sittin out on the salt chuck in one of those taboguns wouldn't I.. Different boats for different applications yah know.. The trick is to finding one that sort of fits in all round..

As far as someone building a boat that is problem free well its never been done in history !!! B.O.A.T. Bring Out Another Thousand don't care who builds them...
