Why Fall is the Best Time to Buy a New Boat

Why Fall is the Best Time to Buy a New Boat

Fall is one of the best times of the year to purchase a new boat. Here at Great Lakes Yacht Sales in Kenosha, Wisconsin, we have some incredible deals on a variety of new boat models and makes. As the boating season winds down, manufacturers are making way for next year's models, which means you can score fantastic discounts on this year's boats.

In this blog post, we'll highlight exactly why fall is an opportune time for scoring a new watercraft, along with info on some of our current inventory specials and pre-orders for the latest models. Read on to learn more!

Discounted Prices on This Year's Models

As we transition into late summer and early fall, boat manufacturers are preparing their production lines, factory floor space, and inventory for next year's models. As a result, by autumn, dealers like us need to clear out remaining inventory to make room.

This equates to major bargains for you! We start offering discounts on in-stock boats to entice buyers to snatch up what’s left of the current year’s fleet. Whether you've had your eye on a bowrider, deck boat, pontoon, or fishing boat, you’ll find deals that make upgrading to a new vessel much more affordable.

Keep in mind - our inventory is updated daily. Be sure to check back throughout the fall to see the latest discounts as we continue clearing out this year's stock.

Special Savings on Pre-Ordered 2025 Models

Not only can you find deals on existing inventory this fall, but we’re also offering savings on 2025 model year boats. Manufacturers provide us with special pricing so we can promote new model pre-orders ahead of the official release date.

Pre-ordering your 2025 boat in the fall allows you to take advantage of these promotions. Plus, you can customize the exact details since the boat will be factory ordered to your specifications.

Avoid the Spring Rush

One key benefit of getting your new boat in the fall vs waiting until spring is avoiding the huge crowds and chaos of peak boat-buying season. As soon as the weather starts warming up in late winter and early spring, eager boaters come pouring onto dealers’ lots. It can be frustrating battling crowds when you’re trying to shop for your new boat.

Purchasing your next watercraft in the fall means you skip the frenzy and can evaluate your options in a more relaxed, enjoyable setting. Our sales team will be able to devote more quality time and attention to you to help match you with your perfect vessel.

Enjoy Offseason Discounts on Accessories

Finally, visiting our dealership in the autumn months means you can outfit your new boat at lower prices too. Things like life jackets, lines, covers, electronics, anchors, and safety gear see discounts going into winter. Stock up on all the essential extras you’ll need for less than during peak boating season.

Here at Great Lakes Yacht Sales, we also offer special promos when you purchase accessories alongside your new vessel.
