Why Buy Used?

You may be wondering why we recommend buying a pre-owned craft. The biggest appeal is, of course, the price. Used boats are significantly cheaper than a brand new model. This isn't just great for your wallet. It can also be a good way to test the waters and see if you truly do want a vessel of your own or if the model that you choose is the right one for you, long-term.

Even if you do all of the research and pinpoint what features you want, the only way to know for sure if you've got the right craft is to hit the water. With more experience, you'll learn what features are useful and what aren't. Most owners don't nail it on their first try. But if you buy a pre-owned vessel, you can pay it off faster and upgrade sooner.

The smaller investment is also beneficial to first-time owners because mistakes won't be as costly. While being careful and diligent will hopefully help you avoid any major accidents, you should prepare to bump the dock a few times or make other minor mistakes that could scratch your used vessel. This will be less financially harmful if your craft already has a few scuff marks. Repairs probably won't be as expensive and insurance will also be more affordable.

What to Consider

You should keep in mind that you'll need to take some specific precautions to ensure that you're not getting a boat that's going to turn into a burden. Make a list of your priorities and do some research on any models you're interested in. Start by seeing what previous owners have to say about that specific model year. This will give you a good idea of whether or not there are any red flags you should be aware of. Don't forget to ask for a history report. This will give you more information about the particular pre-owned craft you're looking at.

You should also make sure you are buying from a reputable seller so you can find the best model available. That's why you should visit a dealer like Rockingham Boat! Located in Hampstead, New Hampshire, we are proud to serve those in Nashua and Manchester. Our team can't wait to help you find the perfect used boat for your next marine adventure!
