Boat Trailer Dangers

Ride down most any street along the Florida coastline and you’re going to see lots and lots of boats being pulled to and from the water by all types of vehicles. Look a little closer and you’ll see many of them not hooked up correctly. Apparently, there are many people out there who don’t realize just how vital it is for that boat trailer to be properly hooked to the vehicle.I’ve seem them with the latch up and the chains that are designed as a safety precaution wrapped around the end of the…See More

try this for size. if its not large enough you can likely have the belts lengthened. the amount of floatation required is most likely more than sufficient, making it fit comfortably is the challenge. best to test it out in a swimming pool first if…

Most of my lenders are only loaning low book without options on used boats and requiring 10-20% down on a new boat.

Walk away from pushy salepeople. Also recommend not putting big down payment unless you want to buy the boat all cash. In my case, I put a minimum down and go a 10 year loan. Never intend to keep the boat that long but when I do sell it, I will pay…

Good advice from above but I would do a survey at first, then hire a qualified boat mechanic to check everything on the boat. I know of a great one so if you are interested, let me know. Sea trial with mechanic on board is a must. I also would…

Friday the 13th

Do any of you boaters believe the superstitions around Friday the 13th? I have a boater friend who will not go out on the waters on this day at all! He's convinced something bad would happen if he did.



I hear there are superstitions about this day in all areas of the world and society but I know many boaters to be more superstitious than your average Joe. Is there really anything different about today or any more danger to getting on the waters?



It's a sunny but cool day… Continue

Choosing Florida Boat Insurance

If you have your own boat, you’re going to need insurance for it and there is a wealth of companies trying to sell you some. My dad taught me when I was still a girl how important boat insurance was but it’s unfortunate most people don’t get taught how to find a good boat insurance company.



Know this: all boat insurance companies are not the same.



Don’t just go with the first insurance company to come your way and remember that you don’t have to be locked into one offered… Continue
