Default 1998 Z302 Heartland Marine

Just put a deposit down on a 98 Z302 at Heartland Marine at lake of the Ozark's. Does anyone have any experience buying from them? They have a lot of big boats. There are a few minor issues with the boat they are going to fix. A couple scratches and some cracks in the upholstery. They have their own shop and do all their own work. Does anyone have any experience with this place? I'm buying from out of state and will be taking the boat back to Indiana.

    Not that it means much, but LOTO used to use the Challenger FPS302 as their police boats

    I looked at their lot for my 272 and thought it looked like a used car lot. None of the boats had trailers either. I ended up passing on buying from them as it did not feel good. I did use a private mechanic in the area to do a mechanical evaluation if you want his name.

    We made a trip out there and looked at it. We will make another trip out in a few weeks and will test drive it on the lake before the deal is done. They move a lot of boats I know what you mean by the car lot comment. I guess most people on that lake don't trailer since everyone has docks with lift. I couldn't find anything negative about them. We have family from that area and asked around and no negative feedback so we pulled the trigger.
