Check out Local Boats for Sale Before Memorial Day!

With April coming to a close, it’s time to make sure you have your boat situation figured out before Memorial Day!

As all Midwest boaters know, Memorial Day is when the boating season truly begins in full force throughout Michigan. As the unofficial start to the summer, Memorial Day is a long, warm weekend that everyone can enjoy. That’s why shorelines throughout Michigan and beyond will be filled with happy families and relaxed boaters.

With that said, if you’re not already in on the boating fun, we wouldn’t blame you for feeling a little left out. But luckily, we here at Kooper’s Marine have a variety of pontoon boats for sale for a wide range of price ranges.

Today, we’re discussing how you can prepare to make the most of your boating season!

Tips for Choosing the Best Pontoon Boats for Sale

Choosing a pontoon boat ahead of the Memorial Day season can feel like a big decision. After all, it’s an important financial investment and you only have so long before Memorial Day arrives. That’s why we’ve prepared some tips to make it much easier on you:

Know Your Price Range. Before going into any big purchase, it’s essential to know your price range. This is especially true when buying a boat. Unlike most investments, boats are exclusively a luxury purchase for most buyers. That means they’ll all have amenities that you’re sure to love. Trust us, there’s always a new and exciting feature in the boating industry. Knowing your price point will help anchor you to a practical purchase.

Rank Your Preferences. Since boats come with such a wide variety of bells and whistles, you’ll want to rank your preferences. We recommend taking a sheet of paper and creating three categories: “Need to Have,” “Want to Have,” and “Would be Nice.” Then, within those categories, rank up to 5 items each. That way it’s easier to keep your priorities in mind when you see a price tag.

Do Your Research. We love boats, and we want to make sure you get the boat that’s best for you. And while we’re always happy to tell you everything about the boats we have, it will probably feel like information overload if you come in without knowing the basics. Likewise, if you do your research in advance and come to visit us with a firm idea of what you want, it’ll be much easier for us to pair you up with your ideal watercraft.

Prepare for Your Voyage with Boat Service and Maintenance

If you already bought a boat over the fall or winter (which is a great way to shop on a budget) but haven’t put it on the water yet, then we highly recommend getting it serviced first. Remember: it’s always easiest to catch and prevent a problem in advance than it is to fix a problem that’s already sprung up.
