Re: Question about iboats...

I would say so.
The phone number kinda falls in line with iboats's numbers.
Not sure though.

Re: Question about iboats...

Iboats makes nothing..(far as I can see)...they are middle men that cut deals with manufactures for shipping of parts...at a good price..(power of advertising)
The warehouse (just what IS the SQ???..curious) will probably stock needed, seasonal, well know items that sell in certain periods.
Unsold inventory makes ya ZIP in the bottom line..
They are VENDORS, that get a deal, take a cut, and pass it on.
Like any other biz.
Manufactures build stuff, but will not deal with the public...they go through known vendors.
Called MSRP
48 years dealing Harley stuff, and if Custom Chrome in CA had in stock all for sale in THEIR warehouse off the 700 page catalog, well, be the biggest damn building known to mankind...
Hope this helps..

Re: Question about iboats...

I get that part, Scaaty. What I am trying to figure out is if I will be patronizing iboats if I buy from volvopentastore. I get a lot out of these forums and need some parts so I'd like to "keep it in the family" if I can...

I did notice the phone#, Spinner. It's only one digit different...Hmmm...?

I'd try just clicking on the "contact us" link at the bottom of the page and ask iboats.
