Tips When Buying Used Fishing Boats

By Stefan Jonsson


Before you head out looking for a used fishing boat you need to check your budget. Don't buy a too expensive boat as it might bother you later and you might have to sell the boat to shake out some money. Instead settle for a price range before you start looking and don't let yourself get sucked into the 'I got to have this one!'

Is the boat clean? If the seller hasn't bothered cleaning it before selling, what are the odds that he has been treating it good the time he had it? It's more important than you think. It's much better to buy a clean fishing boat from a pedant. Then you have a lesser chance of running into 'hidden errors'.

Don't buy a boat because you feel it's a great deal. Always have a look around and compare the price on it. A boat is just like a car and loses a lot of value in the beginning. Try to find the point where the value loss is not as steep anymore.

Even if you buy a used fishing boat online, from a local dealer or newspaper class fields it can be good to contact an expert. The expert can make a thorough examination of the boat and find errors you never would have. You can find a local boat expert simply by Googling for it and they usually charge around $10 per linear foot.

If you buy a newer used boat you should check the warranty. It feels a lot safer to buy a boat that has warranty. The first test rounds are critical and if something fails then you can easily use the warranty.

I hope that you liked these tips and I will come back with more good tips about used fishing boats.

Marinas are the top of the range as far as moorings are concerned. Moorings in a marina tend to provide deep water throughout the day and therefore a jetty or pontoon is provided so that you can walk to your boat without getting wet.These are known as Pontoon Moorings. They will also provide most of the facilities that you require whilst using your boat. These may include showers and toilets, chandlery, parking, cafe and even a clubhouse. The security provided by a marina will be good and in many cases will include electronic access gates and CCTV camaras.

Sailing/cruising To Achieve One's Goals.

Sun, 19 Aug 2007 16:55:16 +0200
After reading Liz Clark's sailing blog, my husband and I started talking about what was so refreshing about it (besides the good grammar and pics!). Well, the thing that jumped out was the fact that this cruiser wasn't identifying herself as a cruiser but instead as a surfer-girl. Her outlook on life, her goals, where she's going and what she's doing doesn't simply focus on "cruising" for the sake of cruising. We realized that we were craving another viewpoint like this. We absolutely love to hear about people who are achieving another life goal where sailing/cruising happens to be a conduit to the achievement. What do you all think?
