Why You Want a Used Boat

Whether it’s for pleasure, profit, or both, there’s nothing like owning your own boat. We here at Gordy’s Marine want to help you make the most of your time on the water without breaking the bank, so we’ve put together a few of the benefits of owning a used boat, below. To learn more, or to see the used boats we have for sale, contact our stores throughout Wisconsin and Illinois, today!

The Money

Like we mentioned, buying a used boat is the economical option. Not only is the sticker price going to be a fraction of what a factory-fresh boat might cost, but used boats are also cheaper to insure, register, and maintain.

It’s also important to understand depreciation. In a new boat’s first year of ownership, its value decreases drastically. However, after that first year, depreciation plateaus, meaning that if you need to trade in or sell your used boat, you’ll be able to do so for closer to the price you paid.

Low-Risk

Whether you’re new to boating or just new to the particular model or type you’re considering, chances are you’re going to bump and bruise it. There’s no shame in that! Docking, turning, and learning the boat’s draft all tend to end up with a few scrapes. When they occur to a used boat, however, it doesn’t feel nearly as bad. You can also do more research and read more reviews about used boats and the lineups they’re part of, leading to fewer surprises.
