Not sure what you mean by a presence in New England.

In October 2007 Kelly Hanson claimed to have had a dealership in Harwich, MA. They never did.
A few months later (June 2, 2008 actually) they claimed they would soon be opening a dealership in MA. They never did.

I've checked with both the MA Secretary of State and the Department of Revenue. Kelly Hanson has never had a dealership in MA. They don't have a dealership anywhere else in New England.

They sell boats out of Colorado. If you buy one and there is something wrong with it, you're on your own getting it fixed..

Topic moved and split due to being off topic. Was about giving a ride to someone, not about if a dealer has a business in NE.

I said presence, not brick and mortar building. They have a sales rep in the area that can sell a boat and service them. I am sure if someone in new england wanted to buy a boat from KH, they would sell it to them.

For the record, havencraft does not have a brick and mortar building either, but will sell a boat to anywhere on the east coast.

I don't think either offers post-sale service in the area

KH has a sales rep who lives in Schenectady, NY. He works out of his home. They do not have any facilities to service boats anywhere in NE, pre or post sales. Their only facility is in Colorado.
