We’re always looking to purchase quality pre-owned boats for our inventory.
At Crate’s Lake Country Boats, we specialize in late-model, well-maintained fibreglass boats from reputable brands. If your boat fits our needs, we offer a straightforward, professional buying experience.
What We’re Typically Looking For
- Fibreglass construction (no aluminum or inflatables)
- 18’–40’ (bowriders, cruisers, express cruisers, and yachts)
- Generally 10 years old or newer
(occasionally up to 15 years for exceptional boats)
- Clean, well-maintained condition with no major damage
We focus on well-known brands such as Regal, Cruisers Yachts, Pursuit, Cobalt, Sea Ray, Chaparral, Monterey, Four Winns, and Bayliner, among others of similar quality.
