Buying A Boat - Basics For Beginners
Ask yourself two basic questions before you do your boat-buying research. First, what will you be fishing for? Are you looking for a quiet sunrise break on the lake? Or do you want to test your skill on the high seas? Second, when and where will you do your fishing? That quick sunrise fishing trip at the lake will take little more than a row boat or raft. But the serious deep sea fishing trip requires a sturdy dependable vessel with ample safety features.
Dealers of Ranger boats talk about a 5-star advantage that applies to all boats, no matter who manufactures them. The five points are quality, performance, innovation, safety, and value. What materials will offer you quality and value? Is your candidate boat made of plastic, metal, or fiberglass. Does it have a heavy-duty bilge pump and heavy-duty wiring? Will it withstand stormy seas?
Here are a few specifics to consider when buying a boat. These are just a sample of the factors that can make the difference between an enjoyable and successful fishing trip and a heartache. Be sure to do more research. Visit boat dealers and talk to people who already own their own boat. Buying a boat can be an expensive proposition. Make sure you are well-educated so that your decision is one you don't regret.
How will you tow your new boat?
Your tow vehicle will dictate some options when you're buying a boat. Be sure it has the proper power to get the job done. Generally, a larger boat may require a vehicle that will pull up to 3500 pounds, especially where you have to travel hills and mountains. A small fishing boat, like a kayak or inflatable raft, may need a special rack for your car top. Before you go shopping, be sure you have the correct equipment to transport your new boat.
What materials are appropriate for your fishing needs?
In smaller lakes where there aren't big waves, a light aluminum may be perfect. Aluminum is more forgiving of bumps and bangs than fiberglass or wood. It's also less expensive. A light metal boat or inflatable raft will be best for early mornings on the lake, but they won't last in the bay. For heavier seas, you'll need more durable materials, a sturdier craft, and a powerful motor.
Should you choose a new or second-hand boat?
Second-hand boats are cheaper and hold their value longer since they've already depreciated. You're more likely to get a dependable, economical deal with smaller boats that don't have a lot of equipment or features. But if you're investing in a larger boat with lots of features, you'll want the warranty that comes when you're buying a new boat. First-time buyers may be better off buying a boat from a dealer. Once you have some experience owning and operating your own boat, you'll be in a better position to judge the value of a used boat. At the same time, if you're buying a boat for long trips or high-sea fishing, be prepared to spend thousands, or tens of thousands, to get a good vessel. It all depends on how you feel about safety and dependability. Take your chances and save money or spend the bucks and be secure. It's all up to your adventurous nature.
How does the boat handle?
As a first-timer, you may not know what to look for in handling when you're buying a boat. This is where the experience of other boaters may prove extremely valuable to you. But think about how easily you'll be able to launch and retrieve the boat from a ramp. Will you be able to quickly attach it for towing? How much labor are you willing to invest to move your new boat around? And if you're buying a boat with some power, you'll need to understand how well it maneuvers in the water. Boats aren't as easy to test drive as automobiles, so you'll need to be certain you can handle a high-powered fishing boat.
Buying a boat is an exciting adventure. You're buying much more than a water craft. You're buying years of pleasurable fishing experiences. It might be tempting to rush into your purchase, buying a boat that appeals to your taste. But slow down and take care that your new boat meets your needs. We can't stress enough how important it will be to do your homework.
Surf the internet to learn about boats, to find reviews, to listen in on forums and blogs, and to find out what models and brands have the best reputations. Talk to other boaters, and don't be afraid to ask lots of questions at dealerships. A good dealer will be more than willing to invest the time to make sure you're an educated buyer.
