Buying a boat can be a daunting task especially if it's the first time buying a boat. By considering a number of factors you can narrow down your selection to find the boat best suited to your budget and boating abilities. Speaking with a boat retailer or marine professional will also help with your decision and get you on the water faster and safer. 

Tow weight and the rating on your tow bar for downwards weight on the tongue should be considered. While tow weight can’t be helped the downwards weight can be by correct positioning of the axle(s). If there is too much weight your vehicle may have trouble steering and braking. On the other side if there is too little weight the trailer will push the back of your vehicle around. These can lead to dangerous driving situations with a boat on a trailer and should be well thought out before purchasing your boat and trailer. 

Getting your boat onto the water once you're at the boat ramp is equally important! Items such as trailer guide poles, bow rope’s, stern rope’s, small holding anchors can all make the launch of your boat easier. Knowing the boat ramp you are going to use and being confident using it are also important.  If you are not sure about the launch then practice before you go out or ask somebody with experience to come out with you until you feel confident to launch the boat yourself. 

Speak to your boating experts in Christchurch to find the boat best suited to you. Discussing handling of the boat, price, safety and other matters will determine what is best for you.
