My advise is, first, they are discontinuing the Duel Pontoon and that is the reason for the great price.
Secondly, ORDER NOW!!!! maybe offer 1/2 down, and he will bring it with him. If you don't, I am 99% sure he won't have that boat with him and you will have to wait for them to get back to Ogden to send it.

Really? I've been considering a Madison as well, though I haven't had the chance to row the little 9' Outlaw down a river yet. But no more dual pontoons from Dave? None?
I probably need a new toon this year, and certainly "want" one. 9 feet is the max, and I'd really prefer an 8 like the 11-yr-old Angler's Inn Expedition I have now. I'd buy another one of those in a heartbeat if it were available. It still floats, but the frame is getting worn, and I did patch the outer cover once. Its day is coming though.

Tarp, We had the Expedition as well. Or I should say My Hubby and all his brothers. I had the older USA made Bucks Bag.
Then we graduated to the Cardiac.
Jim, I am betting they will no longer make the duel pontoons when the stock is gone. I have no idea for sure, but, have seen this before with the Cardiac Canyon and like Tarpon said, the Expedition. Two very hot selling Pontoons, that are no longer made. He is focused on the U shape. He does stand behind his word, that is "if says his name on it, it is covered", but I am sure he would have had to substituted my Cardiac if I had need serious warranty.
I am also sure he has back up for repairs and warranty for awhile longer. He has even told me, he is escaping from bladders all together.
Look at the new line.....it speaks for it's self.
May I say, even if it is discontinued, I wouldn't worry at all because they are so tuff, and as I mention, it will always be covered one way or another.

Well, that is all good.
My problem is that Im not sure if I should be buying new
boat right after I write a check for $52000 to close
on our house.
I talk to my wife about it and she told me NO. But I do want it. So that is the problem...............

Heck, we just did $10K on renovations and then new furniture on top of that and a Sage rod sneaked in there.
We refinanced the house for a little more and not only got the Truck, but the shell, and paid off the Outlaws.
Just like $2. more on that monthly bill.

Work it out with your wife. It needs to be a joint agreement, or it is going to be a sore point forever! If it isn't going to happen immediately and you miss when Scadden comes down -- the shipping isn't that much more, so wait a bit until you to can both get together on getting it.
Good luck
