Thanks to everyone on this forum I am finally ready to take the plunge and buy the above boat and outboard. I would like to buy new or ex display. I was wondering if you guys knew where I would get the best deal at lowest cost? Looking on google the prices vary an lot for the same sib and engine.
Thanks all.

Not new but a couple of nice rigs on eBay:

Honwave 4 person dinghy, 20hp Honda Outboard, Trailer | eBay UK

Honwave 4 person dinghy, 20hp Honda Outboard, Trailer | eBay UK

Shame you missed this one:

If new I think Youngs have the best deal:

HONDA HonWave Inflatables - Youngs Boat Yard

Hi there,

Can get some bargains n Ebay like Max has pointed out but if you want new, find as many dealers as you can and ring around and get quotes, then re ring the best to get reductions. You just have to be hard faced and drive a hard bargain.

If you do go for new the 6 year warranty requires an annual service, this can be a good bargaining point when negotiating a deal.

Hi Everyone.

I'm down to £3400 from a list price of £3999. If anyone has beat this price can you let me know ASAP.

Thanks for all the helpful replies so far.

Have you tried these?

Midway Boats Barbridge Marina, Nantwich, Cheshire - UK North West sports power and canal narrow boat - Finnmaster, Grandezza, Yamaha and Honda outboards

I used these a couple of years ago, haggled with them a bit against others and when I got the best price of them they also did a deal on lifejackets when we went to pick it up.

Nice people as well, certainly gets my
