Things to consider when buying a boat.
Since the sea is a highly demanding environment and requires attention, the choice of a boat should be made after the prospective purchaser has taken into consideration the following:
- Whether the boat will be used for recreation purposes, fishing or both.
- Whether he/she has a boat driving license, or not.
- The marine areas that will be used for sea journeys.
- The number of passengers on board.
- If the boat will be docked or towed by a trailer.
- The ability for the boat to be pulled when towed by a trailer.
Having considered all the above, the prospective purchaser will be able to choose among the following accessories to best serve his needs.
- Sun canopies (folding of fixed).
- Cruising canopies or T.TOP.
- Roll bars and various other stainless steel structures.
- Lighting at appropriate points on deck so as to guarantee safe access to the boat.
- Rocket launchers and support points (rails and hand rails) at points provided by the manufacturer.
- Ladders, catwalks and handles that ensure smooth and safe boarding.
- Rollers or electronic workers to lift the anchor.
- Electronic accessories useful for fishing like sonars and fish finders.
- GPS or GPS plotters necessary for the navigation of the boat.
