Chaparral Double Your Deposit Sales Event

[112Vulcan]

Does anyone know anything about this promotion? The Vortex website doesn't say much, I guess they want you to send info so dealer can contact you.

I would guess it's only good for a set amount, like $50 or something

Kidding of course but kind of not. Typically these kinds of deals or marketing are just another way of shuffling the "savings" money. So instead of them having a spring or summer sale saying "$1500 off any new boat" they will instead make an ad that sounds really interesting like doubling your deposit when in reality it's likely set at a defined amount. At least that's my guess on it. Nothing is free. Who puts down a deposit on a jet boat anyways? Down payment...ok...but deposit? Eh, not likely as these are super high demand or custom built boats. In the grand scheme it's all the same money but it's just a weird way to phrase it IMO.

You could skip the online junk email form and just call your local dealer for details. I'm sure they'll ask for your contact info too

Yeah, you're probably right...and they probably won't want to discount either.

I would imagine restriction is under 3k. Otherwise I am going to put down 30k and flip the boat lol.

It looks to me like it is up to the dealer on how much they want to discount the boat to match deposit, so it may vary across the board. I'm going to call the local dealer and ask.

"CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS APPLY. DEPOSIT MATCH AMOUNT IS LIMITED AND VARIES BY MODEL AND MODEL YEAR. PLEASE SEE DEALER FOR COMPLETE PROGRAM DETAILS." --website

Yeah, there is no free lunch. Really makes me warm and fuzzy, though, when they won't even post the details on their website...
