Buyer’s Guide to Used Boats

Are you a first-time buyer looking to become a proud boat owner? We recommend looking into used boats for several reasons, not least of which is the money you’ll save on the sticker cost alone! Used boats hold their value well and are the perfect option when you haven’t owned a boat before.

Boat Country, located in Everett, is your Washington State used boat dealer. Here are some considerations you’ll want to think about when shopping for the perfect used boat.

Save Money

As noted above, the biggest benefit to buying a used boat is the amount of money you’ll save. Every type of vehicle, from cars to boats, undergoes a process called depreciation when it’s bought, where its value decreases significantly during the first year or so of ownership. Following this, the value remains fairly constant. You can save yourself thousands of dollars by purchasing a gently-used boat that’s only a year or two old. Buying used will also save you money on insurance!

Try Things Out

You may not yet know exactly what it is you want or need from a boat in terms of features, and you may not have much experience in operating a craft. Buying a used boat will allow you to learn the ropes without doing serious damage since a scuff or scrape won’t be a huge issue on a boat that already has a few cosmetic flaws. You’ll also be able to pay it off faster so if you find it’s not suitable after a season or two, you can trade it in for something bigger or more feature-laden.

What To Consider

When shopping for a used boat, you’ll want to think about the size of boat you may need. Consider how many passengers you plan to take aboard as well as where you plan to go boating. If you’re going to be in shallow water, then you may want a flat-bottom craft so that you don’t run aground. However, if you’re going out on the open ocean, you’ll probably want a deep-V hull that can handle the chop. You should also think about how you plan to use your boat so that you can get the features necessary for entertaining, fishing, watersports or other activities.
