Florida's Best Boats
Providing the Best Boats at the Best Prices Online.
1300 White Dr, Ste ETitusville, FL 3278phone Introduction: Florida's Best Boats is a small marine dealership specializing in online marine sales across the globe of late model high-line marine products from multiple manufactures. 90% of our inventory is purchased directly from Banks at Marine Dealer Auctions. If you are interested in taking advantage of our current economic downturn and purchase an excellent condition used boat at a fraction of a new boat price, we are your source. Most of our inventory are Bank Repossessions that we hand pick and inspect thoroughly at the auction before we purchase them. Then, once we have purchased them from the Bank, we bring them back to our facility and complete an extensive checklist of serviceability. We go through each boat from Bow to Stern. We check everything on every boat to ensure an accurate account on our classifieds board listings as to what is serviceable and non-serviceable on each vessel. We Test drive each boat in the Indian River right here at our dealership. We again, check the motors, pumps, electronics, etc to make sure everything works as it should. We also service Mercury, Mercruiser, Honda, Suzuki, Johnson, and Evinrude motors as well. We strive to provide our customers with the best possible service we can offer. If this vessel is not the style or manufacture of boat you are looking for, please contact us and request that we post another boat on classifieds board that better suits your needs. We have many different boats in inventory at any given time and we turn over many vessels locally off of classifieds board as well, let us find exactly what you want. We keep our pricing very low as a key example of customer service. Our philosophy is not to get the most money from our customers as possible, but rather to personally satisfy you with this purchase to keep you coming back to us for all your boating needs. And to spread the word that you bought a boat from an honest, well respected company that prides itself with customer satisfaction. We are able to do this by being a small company with very little overhead. Please take time to compare our pricing to any other competitor around and you will find that our prices are very reasonable, in fact, unbelievable. We have been selling many different styles and brands of boats and cars on classifieds board for over 8 years and have built a reputation of honesty and trust with our customers that is second to none. We have an excellent feedback rating on classifieds board and are here to stay. You may notice some other dealers on classifieds board jumping from name to name to "reset" their feedback, not Florida's Best Boats. Beware of other boat dealers with less than 50 feedback. There is a reason they are starting over and over and over. We have over 1000 Transactions on classifieds board and a feedback rating over 99% Positive. That is not an easy task to accomplish. The only way to do that is to be honest and have integrity. If you think you are interested in buying this boat, I invite you to please call me directly. I am the president and owner and I want you to be as comfortable as possible in making such a huge decision to purchase such a large item over the internet. I would be more than happy to speak you over the phone about your specific needs and situation. Everyone is different and has different thoughts about their next big purchase. We are in the business of making our customers happy and we believe that something as important as your next boat or yacht purchase should be a personal experience, not just an electronic one. So, please do not hesitate to call me.phone and ask for TomRating System: Just as a reference, I want to try to explain my rating system throughout my description of this boat. At the end of the description, I try to give an "overall" rating. This rating is a number on a scale of 1 to 10. A 1 would describe a boat that you would find in a local outside junk yard that is completely full of deterioration, contamination, and damage. A 10 would describe a brand new boat or yacht with zero hours on it and basically right off the showroom floor. So a good condition boat that has had average use and care, would be somewhere between a 6 and 8. International Shipping: For those of you that are interested in purchasing this boat and having it shipped to your home country, No Problem. We ship boats internationally every month. We can ship boats up to 40' internationally and we have very competitive rates. If you need a quote to ship this boat to you, just ask. I would ask that you please be very interested in purchasing this boat before requesting a quote. It takes time to calculate quotes for international shipping and we get a lot of emails for quotes. When realistically, only one person is going to actually buy this boat. So if you want a quote for shipping, we are happy to provide it, but please be prepared to purchase the boat if the quote is reasonable. If you have any questions for us about transporting the boat inside the US to a particular port, that is no problem either. We are here to help in any way we can. We can also disassemble towers, consoles, whatever you need to bring the shipping cost lower.For Sale Locally:This boat is currently for sale at our dealership now. If it should sell before the end of this auction, we will be ending the auction early.

Over the years of selling boats on classifieds board, we have discovered that not everyone wants the trailer. Some people store their boat in a dry rack marina, others store it on a personal lift behind their house, and others may keep it in the water full time. Because of this, the trailer pictured here is not included in this sale. If you are someone who does need a trailer for your boat, we can sell this trailer to you additionally, that is no problem. But the final bid on this boat is without the trailer. That seems to be the best way to level the playing ground for everyone. If you do require this trailer, it is the Single Axle Painted Steel trailer shown in the photos below but is not included in the classifieds board bid price. It can be purchased by winning bidder for an additional $1,190.00.Overall: I have taken over 60 pictures of this boat from every angle imaginable, so please let this page load so you can see every picture.
