Boating with friends: Ways to be a good boat guest Imagine this: Your work week is winding down, and your best buddies just called to invite you out on their boat for the weekend.

Hooray! You respond with an enthusiastic ‘Yes!’ and tell the rest of your family the good news.

If you haven’t spend much time on a boat, there’s a few things (and some basic boating etiquette) you’ll want to know before stepping onboard. Set yourself up for a successful trip and be a good boat guest with these simple, best practices.

Here are some tips for new boaters:

about why they chose it and what they like about it. It might help you if you’re boat shopping, too.

Wear the right shoes – or no shoes at all Before you excitedly climb aboard in search for the best seat in the bow or next to the cooler, always – always – ask the boat owner if they’d like you to take off your shoes before boarding.

And, if they do allow you to wear shoes onboard, you’ll want wear the right shoes.

Boat shoes are more than just a fashion Know thy neighbor’s boat statement. Specifically, they have non-slip Whether you’re a boating newbie or an old and non-marking soles.

Plan in advance if you’re prone to seasickness (or think you might be) Seasickness can affect even the most seasoned boater, so don’t be embarrassed if you start feeling unwell. Tell your friends.

They might have some anti-sickness medication or wristbands handy.

It often helps to take deep, measured breaths and keep your eyes on the horizon, too. Seasickness can lead to feeling disoriented, so best to try to stem it off if you can.

Don’t be afraid to lend a hand A good boat guest volunteers to help with onboard tasks. If you know your way around boats, maybe you can ready the

fenders, or hop off on the dock to tie up.

Curious about how the boat handles?

Ask if you can take a turn at the wheel (read our step-by-step guide to driving a boat for some helpful tips).

Stock up on snacks and sunscreen Just as you might bring dessert or another dish to a friend’s home for dinner, do the same for the boat. Just make sure the food won’t melt in the sun or stain the onboard cushions.

Toss a bottle of sunscreen into your bag, too, in case anyone forgot; the water reflects the sun’s rays pretty strongly.

Be friendly and enjoy yourself, you’re boating!

A good boat guest also waves to the other boaters passing by. Boaters are friendly by nature, and everyone is out on the water to have a good time, after all. Regardless of who initiatives the wave, it’s guaranteed to put a smile on your face.

10 easy ways to save money on boat ownership costs Using tools like the Boat Loan Calculator at the Discover Boating websites makes it easy to nail down accurate monthly expense figures when you’re purchasing a boat, but like any substantial asset, there are other costs of boat ownership. You can, however, find plenty of way to save money on annual boat ownership.

These 10 tips will be a good start as you decide how to manage your boat ownership expenses in the most cost-effective way:

another owner or owners, and the financial benefits of sharing the cost can be huge.

Plus, there are fractional ownership companies that take care of many of the ownership issues, so you can enjoy fractional ownership even if you don’t have a group of friends or family who want in.

Particularly when it comes to large boat or yachts, for people with limited time availability fractional ownership makes a lot of sense.

Keep up with the maintenance Keep your boat and its power system properly maintained.

This includes things like making sure the bottom isn’t covered in growth and keeping the engine(s) in good running condition so you don’t lose efficiency. But keeping the boat well maintained will also pay off in the long run, because expensive breakdowns and equipment failure becomes much less likely.

Take a boating education course It’s always a good idea to continually expand your knowledge and skillset when it comes to boating, and taking a boating class can help you do just that. The better educated you are the less likely it is that you’ll make a costly mistake while running your boat. Plus, in some cases being better educated can get you an insurance break.

Since many boater education courses are free, that makes taking one a win-win.

Take advantage of tax deductions There are a number of ways boats can help you reduce your tax burden at the end of the year.

Your boat may count for a second home mortgage interest deduction. In some cases they qualify as a business expense, boats that are chartered for profit may be a legitimate consideration. If you use your boat to commute expenses could be deductible. And when you’re ready to move Consider placing your boat into a peer-to-peer boat-sharing marketplace. Many boat owners find on to a new boat you may be able to donate that they can defray a large proportion of the cost of ownership – and sometimes even make a profit your old one to get an additional tax break.

So, you haven’t owned a boat before, but after discovering that the boating lifestyle is totally awesome (we agree!) you’ve begun exploring the Discover Boating Boat Finder Tool – and luckily, you’ve found the ideal boat for you and your family.

You’re probably thinking that your next big challenge will be learning how to drive that boat – and you’re right – but don’t let the prospect feel daunting.

Remember the first time you sat behind the wheel of a car? You may have experienced a bit of trepidation then, too.

But you probably got over it in short order, and driving became second nature before you knew it. In all likelihood, you’ll have a similar experience as you learn how to drive your boat.

To get started, Discover Boating offers some basics when it comes to learning the ins and outs of your new boat:

How to drive a boat

If your boat is powered by gasoline and has an engine compartment, run the “blower” (an exhaust fan) as per manufacturer’s recommendations prior to starting the engine, to make sure there isn’t a build-up of fumes in the compartment.

This is a good time to run through your Pre-Departure Checklist, which can be

step-by-step guide key, but there are a few safety items you need to be aware of which aren’t present in automobiles and which may prevent the engine from turning over.

• Engine safety cut-off or “kill switch.”

The first safety item that’s important to note is one we mentioned above: the kill switch, or engine safety cut-off. This is a small red knob found next to the ignition on most small or open boats. In the closed position, the switch won’t allow the engine to start.

A small clip fitted to slide under the knob pulls it back, into the open position.

This clip is attached to a lanyard, which has a tether clip on the other end. You should always clip this onto a loop on your lifejacket or a belt loop, prior to operating your boat. Then, if for any reason you move away from the helm, the lanyard yanks the clip out from under the knob and the engine immediately stops.

• Throttle. Another safety feature that can prevent a boat engine from starting is the throttle, which must be in the neutral position. If the boat battery is turned on and fully charged, you turn the key, and the engine doesn’t start, it’s often because the kill switch is engaged or the throttle isn’t in neutral.

How to start a boat • Operating the boat’s throttle. Think of a Starting a boat is as simple as turning the boat’s throttle just like the accelerator pedal found at discoverboating.com.

Put the key into the ignition (some modern boats have push-buttons instead), and turn it to start the engine.

If the boat has a “kill switch” (also known as an engine safety cut-off, which automatically turns the engine off if you leave the helm for any reason), clip the lanyard on a belt loop of life jacket ring.

Make sure all your gear is aboard and all your passengers are prepared to disembark.

Remove all the lines securing the boat to the dock, pier or slip.

Engage forward (or reverse if you need to back out of a slip) by pushing the throttle handle forward (or pulling it back) gently until you feel it shift into gear.

When the boat begins moving, spin the wheel just as you would turn the steering wheel in a car to determine direction of travel.

Advance the throttle as appropriate to reach the desired speed.

Trim (adjust running attitude) the boat as appropriate for the conditions.

When you want to slow down, gently pull the throttle back towards the neutral position.

in a car. Unlike a car, however, once you adjust it to a specific speed it stays there.

So slowing down requires more than just taking your foot off a pedal, you have to actually grasp the throttle and pull it back.

This is important to keep in mind, because when you see a large wave or lots of traffic coming, you need to be prepared to move the throttle accordingly.

This brings up an important point we haven’t covered just yet: situational awareness. When driving any motorized vehicle it’s important to constantly monitor your surroundings for anything that might require a response – a traffic light, pedestrians, other vehicles, and so on.

The same is true when you’re operating a boat. In boating terms this is referred to as “maintaining a proper lookout,” and it means that as the captain of a boat, you have to always be watching your surroundings and recognize when there’s a risk of collision, running aground, hitting a big wave, or any other factor that could require a response at the helm.

Steering a boat

As pointed out, using a steering wheel on a boat is very similar to using a steering

DRIVING A BOAT

wheel in an automobile. You turn the wheel, and the boat follows – mostly.

You need to always remember that there are other factors influencing a boat’s direction of travel, like wind, waves, and current. As a result, boats may handle differently in different conditions and a turn of the wheel may not always change the boat’s direction exactly as planned.

This can be particularly frustrating when docking, which many new boaters describe as one of the most challenging maneuvers to learn. So before you give it your first shot study up on the process, by reading Docking a Boat: a Step-by-Step Guide.

Once you have steering and docking down pat, you may be tempted into making long cruises to distant ports, or fishing hotspots that are beyond eyesight of the marina. To get there and back safely, you’ll need to take another big step in your boating career and learn how to navigate a boat.

Slowing a boat

We already mentioned that you have to manipulate the throttle to get a boat to slow down, but since boats don’t have brakes, there’s a bit more you need to know.

For starters, you need to become familiar with your boat and learn how much stopping distance is needed to come to a complete stop in a safe fashion when running at different speeds.

Remember, boats don’t have seatbelts and are subject to a lot more motion than land vehicles. As a result, sudden or abrupt changes in speed or direction can throw people off balance or even cause them to fall overboard.

Always be conscious of how you adjust speed or turn. In cases of quick maneuvers, when possible you’ll also want to shout out a warning to your passengers so they know to hold on.

All of that said, you can slow a boat fastest by: • First pulling the throttle back to neutral; • Pausing for a moment; and • Then shifting into reverse and applying some power.

Remember to always pause in neutral and don’t shift directly from forward into reverse, because quickly shifting from one

to the other can cause mechanical damage in some boats.

It’s also important to note that there are many other aspects to driving a boat that relate to the safety of you and your passengers. That’s why most states require you to take a basic boating safety course before running your own boat. But on top of that, prior to operating one we strongly recommend visiting our Safety Guide and giving it a thorough read.

How to trim a boat

With the basics under your belt, you’ll want to learn some of the finer points of driving a boat that will help it run smoother and more efficiently. One important item to learn is how to trim a boat. Trimming consists or manipulating the outdrive’s angle or deploying “trim tabs” (small plates on the stern of the boat).

How you trim it determines how high the bow rises in relation to the stern, and how level the boat does or does not run.

Trim is different on every boat, so trial and error is the best way to learn how your own boat responds to changes in drive angle and/or using tabs.

Also keep in mind that on smaller boats, shifts in weight distribution (such as a passenger moving from one area of the boat to another) can cause changes in trim.

Driving different types of boats All boat models are more or less unique, but a few require some special attention. Pontoon boats, for example, have some unusual traits. So for people getting a ‘toon, we’ve got a How to Drive a Pontoon Boat article just for you. And obviously sailboats are very different from powerboats. If you’re about to become a sailor, be sure to check out Learning the Basics of Sailing at discoverboating.com.

One final word of advice: remember that all boats are different, and it takes some practice to learn how to drive any boat – even Captain Ahab would need to re-learn a thing or two when taking the helm of a new vessel. So don’t be discouraged if you hit a speed bump or two as you learn how to run your boat. Because before you know it, driving it will become second nature.

In what City of Delavan Fire Chief Tim O’Neill described as “one of the more unique calls” he’s responded to, a 14-year-old is reportedly doing well following a freak accident at a pier on Delavan Lake the night of June 26.

The teen had been swimming in the lake and when she returned to the pier, she attempted to get out of the water at the end of the pier. When she stepped on a support under the pier – where a downward, angled piece meets a vertical post – her foot got caught in the narrow area.

But that wasn’t the worst part, according to O’Neill.

“When she stepped down, she was pinned by the wood, which she may have been able to get out of, however, a nail impaled her foot (toe) and that trapped her,” he said.

O’Neill said a bystander helped by holding the girl’s head out of the water until emergency crews arrived.

“Once we got there, we were able to put a life preserver on her and that helped keep her head out of the water so paramedics could attend to her while firefighters worked on the pier,” he said.

According to O’Neill, a saw couldn’t be used on the pier because of the vibration it would have created so it was determined the best option was to use the Jaws of Life. It was the first time O’Neill had been part of a rescue that used that piece of equipment under water.

“In the training we were told it could be used under water but I was a little nervous to be honest. It performed as advertised, I’m happy to say,” he said. “And while we thought we’d have to take a piece of wood from the pier with the patient, that wasn’t necessary as the Jaws sliced right through it and she was freed.”

O’Neill said he was on the pier along with the paramedics during the rescue and it was a challenge to visualize what had happened.

“The firefighters who were in the water were explaining it to me,” he said.

In addition to police, who were on the scene before rescuers, O’Neill said he also appreciated the Town of Delavan Fire and Rescue Department, which took its boat out and stayed nearby.

“That was a nice reassurance to have them there, for the situation and the safety of our crews who were in the water,” he said.

Despite all that happened during the call, O’Neill said it took only eight minutes from the time of their arrival until the teen was freed.

“She’s fine and I’m glad it all turned out,” he said.

SAVE MONEY

• CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4

Reassess your boat storage options You may be able to save money on your slip by shopping at several different marinas, because pricing can vary widely depending on the marina’s location and amenities.

You may also be able to save money in the long run if you buy a trailer and store your boat rent-free, at home. And in the off-season you might find that there’s less expensive winter storage available inland, as opposed to leaving it at the boatyard.

Brush up your DIY While significant mechanical work should probably be left to the professionals, there’s nothing wrong with handling minor chores ranging from cleaning your boat, to winterizing it, to installing new boating accessories.

Naturally you’ll want to use good judgement and be sure you don’t bite off more than you can chew, but a little bit of elbow grease and determination can prevent some big bills from arriving in the mail.

Get gas station on land Fuel costs are usually substantially higher at marinas, and boats hold a lot of fuel. However, whenever you fill up a trailer boat on land be sure to check the pumps and verify that you’re using the proper one. Many land-based gas stations carry E15 these days, and that can damage marine engines and fuel systems.

Have the proper boat insurance While insurance is certainly a cost of ownership, it’s also the best way to prevent dipping into your bank account to cover large, unexpected expenses.

And while it isn’t by definition “insurance,” also consider getting an onwater assistance and towing membership.

All mechanical items including boats can break down, and a tow can be a very large and unexpected expense if you don’t have all the bases covered.

Thinking of selling your boat?

LOW INVENTORY HAS BUYERS ON THE LOOKOUT The best time of year to sell a boat fast and for the most money is before the height of the boating season, plus any time when demand for boats is strong and supply is low. That means, if you’re looking for cash and have a boat you’re willing to sell, early spring was the time to get top dollar, but with demand up, it’s not too late.

According to boating marketplace Boat Trader, sales of used boats remain on the rise nationwide in 2021 after the pandemic set in motion a wave of new enthusiasts buying boats. Early spring transactions for used boats under 36 feet jumped 41% over the same period last year.

However, because of how fast boats are selling, this year’s boat buyer is facing record-low inventory. Inquiries sent to sellers through the platform offer one way to measure increased demand for boats, and the number of leads submitted per boat shopper has grown by 64% over 2020. Experts say the dramatic rise

indicates competition is fierce among consumers and will last beyond summer.

For some shoppers, squeezed selection makes decision-making quick and easy, but for others, it keeps the boat search dragging on until more boats become available. What has helped relieve some of the supply strain is current boat owners recognizing the opportunity for a quick payday and privately listing their boats for sale.

When it comes to selling a boat online, people are drawn to the fast and efficient way to cash in on their boat’s worth.

However, listings that are positioned properly get the best price.

you are to find the right buyer.

Boat Trader’s search filters let sellers reach interested shoppers who are able to find and locate the vessels they’re looking for within a range of specified geo-targeted locations. When you list a boat as a seller, local buyers get notified if the boat matches their criteria, helping you sell your boat faster.

LISTING TIPS THAT HAVE THE BIGGEST IMPACT

Here are three tips to sell your boat quickly: • List your boat on the right platform by considering boating marketplaces first; • Add a detailed description, including LIST WHERE THE FISH BITE engine hours, electronics, upgrades, trailer A selling platform’s geographical scope and regular maintenance performed; and is a key determining factor in ensuring that • Include high-definition photos and your boat will get as much coverage as include a video to enhance your listing. possible. Regardless of whether you want When considering selling platforms, the convenience of a local buyer, the more social marketplaces may sound people that view your ad, the more likely convenient, but they are often less

focused, with a diluted boating audience.

These sites have a lot of yard sale noise and are less likely to have serious boat buyers. As stated by Boat Trader, the portal’s rate of overall lead conversion is 19.4%, meaning that 1 out of every 5 leads converts to a boat sale.

High-quality images are really important when selling a boat, so include many photos or videos at many different angles. In addition, consider offering live video walk-throughs with potential buyers, and try to schedule video chats back-toback to save yourself time.

WHY SELL NOW? In summary, demand for used boats is high, but supply is low. You can reach the largest audience by selling on a specialized targeted website, keeping in mind that boat searches on Boat Trader are up 55% over last year, where 75% of privately listed boats sell within 12 weeks.
