    Where else to buy a boat besides bbc?

    Still looking for a boat but need more resources.
    looked at Texas fishing forum but those boats on the majority are more than halfway across the country for me to even peak at.


    Where else is a good place to look for boats besides bbc?

    Figure what models you are interested in, and search the Internet! Google the model, and you can find many out there you wouldn’t have on Craigslist or here, or anywhere.

    Let's you search all of Craigslist by region, give it a try. And remember on CL if it looks too good to be true it's prob a scam lol

    If you are on Facebook there are a gazillion boat sale groups on there. Some of my favorites are Bass Boats Motors and Accessories, Bass Boat sales Ranger Phoenix Nitro Triton etc and Bass Boat For Sale or Trade. Also check out Bassboats4sale.com.

    Guess it depends on what type of boat you want. I know a lot of NY guys have bought boats through Reynolds marine in CT. That is where I bought my boat and saw several guys from NY there looking. All depends on what you are looking for. A great dealer is what drew me for service etc. If not then the Northeast is a crap shoot for good boats. Half of the boats on craigslist's were scams. Goodluck..

    Try nybass.com. It's kinda slow right now posting wise, but I've seen some posts about guys selling their boats recently.

    As @A Wood mentioned, Reynolds Marine is a very reputable dealer in the northeast area. I bought my RT188 from them. Their salesman, Brian, and the owner, Tom, are both tourney fisherman. They are well respected and up to date on what's happening in the fishing world.

    Look at Facebook Marketplace. You can set your own radius in miles, so you won't drive farther than you want to.
