Thinking About Buying a Pontoon? Ask Yourself These Questions First


Spring is coming, and with the warm weather approaching at the Lake of the Ozarks, you may be in the market for a new or new-to-you boat.  If you are thinking about purchasing a pontoon boat at the Lake of the Ozarks, contact Iguana Boat Sales, your number one boat dealership in the Mid Missouri area.

What is a Pontoon Boat?  

A pontoon boat is a boat that relies on pontoons, or large floatation devices, to keep it floating.  This is a popular boat style for many boaters at the Lake of the Ozarks.  You may be thinking that price is the only consideration you need to take when in the market for a boat this season, but there are several other considerations to think about.  For example, what kind of boat you need for your purposes, whether you want to purchase a used boat, or whether you want to buy brand new. 

What Type of Pontoon Boat Do You Need?  

At Iguana Boat Sales, we have many makes and models of all different styles of boats.  However, if you have narrowed down your boat selection to a pontoon, start to think about what you will be using the boat for.  If you are wanting a party pontoon boat, you will need a pontoon with plenty of space and lots of seating.  If you are planning to use your pontoon boat for watersports, you will need to purchase one with speed.  If you plan to mainly use your pontoon for a fishing boat, you may want to consider purchasing one that includes plenty of storage for bait, tackle boxes, and other fishing equipment.  Don’t forget that any boat you purchase should include room for life preservers for your passengers and yourself!

Do You Plan on Purchasing New or Purchasing Used?

Once you have narrowed down the focus of how you will be using your pontoon, you can then weigh the benefits of purchasing a new boat or a new-to-you boat.  We carry both new and used boats of all kinds.  Contact our team of experts at Iguana Boat Sales, and we can assist you in this decision-making process.

What is Your Budget?

Of course, price is always a consideration to take in when making any large purchase.  Keep in mind that we can help you with boat financing and boat insurance.
