Checking out a boat in person is a huge benefit. You can physically see and feel what you are looking at. You can get down inside a boat to check out the interior, even at a boat show. It's also a good way to see the bottom of the vessel - which is often something that can't be seen once it's in the water.

Various Models Available

Many boat dealers have a variety of boats available at each show. This gives you the chance to see the latest and greatest - all in one place. Check out a number of boat models before you make your selection.

Boat Show Pricing

One-Stop Shopping

Once you find your dream boat, you can find accessories and dock needs that go hand-in-hand with your purchase, all in one place. Many boat and dock related vendors will be at the show. This is a great way to find exactly what you need for your new boat without having to drive all over the Lake of the Ozarks to find it all!

Major Benefits of Owning a Pontoon

Are you looking for a new boat the entire family can enjoy?  If you love spending time out on the water as much as we do, it may be time to buy a new boat at the Lake of the Ozarks! While the best boat dealership at the Lake of the Ozarks has a ton of options available, this week we're spotlighting pontoons. If you're interested in this unique boat, take a look below to learn more about a pontoon's great features!

Lots Of Space

Pontoons make great family boats because there's lots of space to spread out and relax or have fun and run around. Traditional boats don't have the space that pontoons have. There is room to move around, large couches and sometimes they come with a table, which is perfect for kids to use to play with their toys or enjoy a lunch. Old kids love pontoons too because there's enough room for them to invite their friends and still have plenty of room for everyone.

Perfect For Activities

Although pontoons have a reputation for being slow-moving and perfect for enjoying a lazy day out on the Lake (however, who doesn't love those?), that isn't necessarily true anymore. Pontoons have been redesigned with speed in mind. If your family loves to have fun playing with towables, you may need to consider a pontoon! Pontoons are great in the fact that they are so versatile, so whether you love to take it easy and fish or speed on down the Lake, pontoons got it covered.

Easy To Maintain

Pontoons are made of aluminum, which helps prevent tearing and ripping. Boating on the Lake of the Ozarks brings relatively few risks to your boat, but shallow waters, especially when launching and removing a boat, put your boat at risk. A dent is much easier to repair than a tear or hole, and your boat isn't immediately out of commission for the repair. In addition to being sturdier, cleaning a pontoon is much easier too! Ski boats and luxury yachts at the Lake of the Ozarks come with a gel coating that needs to be wiped down to keep that sleek and pristine look. Pontoon boats, made of aluminum, can be loaded onto the trailer and driven away - a pontoon boat looks good air dried!

Pontoons are a great watercraft for families and friends who boat at the Lake of the Ozarks. Here at Iguana Boat Sales, we carry the best pontoons at the Lake of the Ozarks. We know how important it is to find a pontoon with the right features and quality for your friends and family to have endless opportunities for summer fun out on the water. Stop by today to check out our current selection of pontoons for sale at the Lake of the Ozarks!

❄️Tips to Protect Your Dock & Boat this Winter❄️

With the frigid temperatures that are upon us, it's time to be thinking about dock and boat protection. Freezing temps can wreak havoc on your boat, as well as your dock. As the best boat dealership at the Lake of the Ozarks, we're here to help! We want to share some tips to help you better prepare for the harsh winter months that are ahead.

Safety Remove Snow & Ice

If you decide to remove snow or ice from your dock, it is important that you are extra cautious when doing so, as it could be dangerous. Not only could you slip and fall into the frozen waters, but the added weight from the snow and ice could cause the dock to collapse. Falling into freezing water can cause hypothermia to set in quickly, which could rob the body of the ability to perform basic tasks that could leave you helpless in the water. Always use caution when around water during the wintertime.

Secure Dock

Winter weather can be hard on your dock. If your dock is not secured enough, large chunks of ice could damage it, make it crash into the shore or break it free. Inspect your hardware and make sure everything is secure. It is also important to note that icy conditions could weaken dock cables so you may need to repair or replace them once spring rolls around.

Inspect Dock Wiring

Winter storms could cause electrical damage in your dock. In addition, the strong winds and ice could damage the wires. It's important to be cautious when dealing with wires and to treat them as if they are live, even if the power is not on. If your dock experienced electrical damage, it is best to shut the power off and contact an electrician. A professional electrician can come out and inspect your dock for you.

Don't Forget Your Boat

It's important to winterize your boat the Lake of the Ozarks. The winterization process drains any fluids out of your vessel to help protect the engine and other mechanical components. These fluids could freeze inside your boat and cause important mechanical components to crack or malfunction. Help protect your investment by scheduling your boat winterization with Iguana Boat Sales today!

Now that you know how to protect your dock and boat this winter, you're ready to take action. As you take steps to protect your dock, don't forget to get your boat winterized. Iguana Boat Sales can help! We can even haul out your boat, winterize your boat at the Lake of the Ozarks, and store it! We're your one-stop for everything boat maintenance at the Lake of the Ozarks!

Tips for Cold-Weather Fishing

The cold weather is officially here! We know there's a lot of dedicated fishers out there and this blog's for you! Fishing during the cold weather a great time - with the right preparations. As the best boat dealer at the Lake of the Ozarks, we know a little something about boats - fishing boats included. Here at Iguana Boat Sales, we want to keep all of our dedicated fishers safe and warm this fall and winter with these cold-weather fishing tips!

Layer, Layer, Layer

Layering is one of the best ways to stay warm while fishing. Each piece of clothing traps a layer of insulating air, which helps you stay warm. In addition, as the temperature or activity level changes, you can shed a layer at a time until you're comfy again.

Wear a Hat

Did you know that we lose a majority of our body heat through our heads? Wearing a hat, especially one that covers your ears, can make a huge difference in keeping you warm while out on the Lake. No matter what type you wear, whether it is a wool hat or a baseball cap, having something on your head will keep you toasty longer.

Make your Feet Cozy

Putting on a thick pair of wool socks sounds like a good idea when it's freezing out, however, make sure you're not squeezing your feet into too tight of boots. If you want to wear thick socks while out on your boat, consider going up a size or size and a half to encourage more circulation and trap more air in the layers of socks.

Keep your Fingers Toasty

Although gloves are a great way to keep your hands nice and warm, they tend to keep in the way when boating. While fishing, it is nearly impossible to tie on a lure or hook with big, bulky gloves. Luckily, there are all sorts of lightweight gloves on the market today that make these tasks so much easier.

Block The Wind

Windproof jackets and pants help keep the air from penetrating your layers. The more breathable the fabric, the better, as they let perspiration out, which keeps you warm and dry.

Now that you know how to better prepare for your next trip fishing at the Lake of the Ozarks, you're to plan your next excursion. If you're interested in a new fishing boat near Osage Beach, MO, we've got the hookup! Stop by Iguana Marine Group today to check out our current selection of fishing and recreational boats for sale!

Perks of Buying a Boat this Fall

While fall may not seem like the ideal time to buy a boat at the Lake of the Ozarks, there are a TON of perks making a boat purchase this time of year. Stop by Iguana Boat Sales to check out our selection of new and pre-owned boats for sale. As the best place to buy a boat in mid-Missouri, we've provided a few of the reasons why fall IS the best time to make a purchase below.

Better Prices

Oftentimes, the end of boating season is the best time to purchase a new boat, as there is end of seasons sales. Winter is boat show season, so many dealers try to clear out their stock to make room in the showroom for new models from the manufacturers. In addition to purchasing a new boat, fall is also the best time to trade in your old boat for a new model. The end of boating season tends to bring in better trade-in values as well, so don't wait until spring to trade in your boat.

Already Winterized

Winterization can be a pretty complicated process. From bringing your boat out of the water to bringing it to a Lake of the Ozarks boat maintenance company, this process can sometimes take a few days to get completed. When you purchase a boat during the fall season, you can save yourself the hassle of winterizing your new boat.

Save On Storage Fee

After winterizing your boat for the season, you need to store it properly. Sometimes, this can cost a pretty penny. If you buy at the end of boat season, you could save yourself possibly thousands of dollars, as you will not have to pay for boat storage.

Minimal Wait

The spring season is the time when boat manufacturers are at their busiest, so sometimes when you order a new boat, it can take months for it to be built. Don't lose out on precious lake time by waiting until spring to order your boat. The earlier you order, the more time you will have making memories out on the water. If you order your boat in the fall, you can be one of the first boaters out on the lake during the first warm day of the new boating season!

Now that you know some of the perks of buying a boat this fall, you're ready to start boat shopping! Be sure to come out to Iguana Boat Sales when you're ready to check out some awesome boats for sale at the Lake of the Ozarks! We look forward to showing you around and helping you find the perfect boat for your wants and needs.

Perks of Buying This Fall:

Buying a boat in the fall has a ton of perks! It's the most cost-efficient time to purchase a boat. Many times a boat will be on sale toward the end of the boating season. Take advantage of the stellar pricing the fall season offers. This also gives you plenty of time to sell your current boat (if you need to) - before the spring and summer seasons kick back up. You will also have enough time to gather any boating supplies you may need. From life jackets to buoys to tie off rope, you'll have plenty of time during the offseason to research and find the best boating gear for your unique needs.

Mark your calendar for this weekend to check out all the hot new items to stock up for the 2019 boating season. You can even check out the great deals from our 2018 stock! From boats to boating gear to boat supplies, our Lake of the Ozarks boat dealer has you covered. Be sure to come out to the Fall In-Water Boat Show this weekend. Stop by and see us - we're here to answer any of your questions!
