Choosing the Perfect Bowrider Boat

There are several important factors to consider when choosing the perfect bowrider boat. This is a great time with lots of exciting boating trips to look forward to, but we’d strongly recommend you to do proper research before reaching a final decision. You’ll want to consider a number of things like what type of craft is best for your boating needs, whether you should buy new or used, and the size of the boat.

At West Hawk Marine, we’ve got you covered with all the information you need in order to choose the perfect bowrider.

You’ll find us in West Hawk Lake, Manitoba, where we serve all those in Winnipeg and White Shell.

Size Matters

Size is an important factor to think about before you buy a bowrider boat. If you plan to take your family and maybe some guests on the craft, then you’re going to want a size and design that are spacious enough for everyone. For example, if you plan to have guests fairly often or even all the time then you should consider a bowrider boat that is large enough.

Regarding size, you should also keep in mind that not all harbors are big enough to accommodate large crafts. You should be sure that the boat you choose is going to fit into the harbors that you plan to frequent. Of course, the larger the vessel, the more expensive it’ll be to dock and the harder it’ll be to find sufficient dockage.

Consider Your Budget

Whether you want to chase thrills and hit high speeds on the water, or you’d prefer to go fishing, the options are pretty much endless when you start shopping for these crafts. As exciting as a shiny new bowrider boat might be, you can actually get more for your money by buying used. 

Remember that spending more money on a new boat doesn’t mean there won’t be any problems. Of course, if you are looking for a specific boat and can afford it with all its custom features, then go ahead with it. But if money is a factor in your decision, remember that there are plenty of great used options available. You might even be able to get a larger used bowrider boat for the same price as a much smaller new one.
