marine_man Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 You're pretty limited now with Lund Dealers..I'd check Lund's webpage, but I know Rapids Sports in St Cloud sells Lundmarine_man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

not_nuf_time Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 For a purchase or service? I've never purchased a boat from Staples Sports (Lincoln) but I do get my boat serviced and repaired there. They get it done right and are reasonably priced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boatfixer Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 If you to drive a little further, Rays Sport and Marine in Grand Rapids. Talk to Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northlander Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 I would also recomend Rays Sport and Marine. I have also heard good things about Dave although I have never met him myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carpenter Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I wanted the glass lund and Staples didn't sell them so I went to Hoots in Perham. Nice guys, and the service manager was good to work with for rigging the boat. but now (year later) i'm trying to get some warranty work and they aren't being responsive.

whitebassman Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 About to pull the trigger with Staples Sports for a new boat, anybody's thoughts between Staples Sports and Rapid Marine in St. Cloud? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassinbob84 Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 I've never bought from staples sports but they have good service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitebassman Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Placed an order for a 2010 Lund Explorer 1725 SS in black with vinyl floor. All the gadgets too. 115hp Mercuray 4 stroke. Minnkota Terrova 80lbs thrust with iPilot. Humminbird 988c with side imaging for console, and Humminbird 788c for bow linked by interlink. Custom cover, swim platform. Upgraded seats to air ride and pro seats. Shorlandr trailer with swing tongue. Gonna be a sweet looking ride. Pocketbook hurts, but gonna enjoy it for the next ten years at least.Staples Sports seem fair and lowest price b/w Rapid Marine, Nelson Marine. They are the same distance as Rapid Marine for me, so I just went with them. Family business and all, you get to deal with the two owners which is nice.

Carpenter Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 I spoke with both and think Staples is more personable. They will take you out on the lake and make sure you like the boat b4 you buy. Just all around nice people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitebassman Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Yes Carpenter, the owners are like regular people, not someone who is pitching a sale. They seem willing and patient to answer your questions. They know if you are interested enough you will buy. They did mention they will take us out on a local lake and show us how to use the boat, which for us would be great being this is much more complex then a 14 ft tiller alum boat we currently have!
