Lastly, be honest with the buyer if something isn’t working properly, it could waste valuable time and money.

Taking high quality photos and videos is the most important part of selling your boat, since this will be what buyers are looking at. Make sure they are clear and depict your boat accurately. Having several pictures with different angles, show unique features and/or blemishes and including pictures of your boat in the water as well as out of the water will give the buyer a real look at your boat.

Finding the right price for your boat is essential because it can either help or hurt your sale. We provide a tool so you can check the market price of your boat called Price Checker. You can find it on our website and it will provide you with the research from National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA). Buyers may not be interested or request more information if you are asking too much, while if the price is too low, buyers may become suspicious because they think it is a scam. Also, you can browse our large boat selection to find something similar in your area. Sometimes getting a marine survey done will also help determine the value of your boat.

Be sure to have your boat ready to show because it will be the buyers’ first impressions. The best way to do this is to make sure it is clean, tidy and smelling fresh, inside and outside. Also, make sure everything is working properly, this is will give you the best results when selling.

Of course, size doesn’t matter here. In fact, we cater to all types of boat enthusiasts so all are welcome here, regardless of size!

Although we recommend selling your boat privately because you may be able to sell it for more money, there is nothing wrong with selling it to a dealer if the price and your situation is right. This is completely up to you.

We provide a vast range of tools to help you sell your boat, regardless the size or price, including our featured listings and social media marketing on multiple platforms. It is our goal to help find a buyer for all boats, big or small … and for a fair price.

While we at Fresh Water Boats do not require any documents, you will need to provide the buyer with a few. Please check with your local Department of Motor Vehicles for the most accurate and up to date information. A bill of sale contract is used to transfer ownership and must be signed by both seller and buyer. Generally, this is filled out upon delivery or pick up of the boat sold and free templates can be found online for your state. Having warranty documents and maintenance records is helpful to the new buyer, in case something goes wrong after the sale. Proof of ownership (boat & trailer title) is a necessity for the transfer of the boat too. Finally, make sure to give the buyer a receipt for the sale of the boat, this keeps records clean and honest.
