Boats for Sale in Quincy
The heart of Florida’s Future
Named after John Quincy Adams the city of Quincy rests only 30 minutes from Tallahassee Florida. It is only 10 miles from the Georgia state line when traveling on Attapulgus Hwy, and 45 miles to the Gulf. Those which wish to access the Panama City Beach are roughly 75 miles away. If you are seeking a boat for sale in Quincy or anywhere close to Quincy, here are a few things that you should know.
Boats in Quincy may come from Georgia
While many of the boats are manufactured within Florida, and there are several brands whose home base is within the state, the close proximity to Florida may cause listings under Quincy, Florida to actually be in the State of Georgia such as in Attapulgus Ga, Laingkat, or Faceville. It is not that these sellers are posting to mislead, but rather that Quincy is the closest Florida association and they are marketing to the Florida boater base.
In addition to Georgia sellers, one may find that Gretna, Dogtown, Littman, and such surrounding areas list their vessels under Quincy. Boats may be listed under Tallahassee, Florida but may actually be stored in Quincy as well (or vice versa).
Types of boats for sale in Quincy
Boats for sale in Quincy Florida may fall into either Freshwater or into Gulf Based fishing boats. As the Chattahoochee is nearby, as well as several smaller ponds and lakes, smaller boats may be available for purchase. When purchasing such boats, look for vessels which come with a hauling trailer and/or a lift. If fishing in the smaller waters, such as those found near Solomon Dairy Rd. Glory Rd, Salter Rd, and Imperial Nursery Rd, you may wish to look for a Skiff or for a craft with a large casting deck and narrow beam. Keep in mind that the hull does tend to be 3 to four inches above the water on such craft. It is not intended for leisure but for angling.
Angler boats tend to be ideal for 3 to 5 passengers.
Those seeking to go to larger water sources, such as Lake Talquin may find that larger angler boats are for sale and more useful, especially if the buyer wishes to use the boat for fishing on Lake Talquin and in the Gulf. Note that Lake Talquin does boarder the Apalachicola National Forest and there are some areas which have boating, speed, and motor restrictions.
Even though you may purchase a boat for sale in Quincy, if you are doing so for a larger craft, the vessel may be docked around East Bay, Panama City, or Port St. Joe. It is advised that you find vessels which do not have to be hauled across the state if you wish to boat in the Gulf. If you find a large craft, 30 or 40 feet, ensure that you either secure a means to haul it or negotiate with the buyer to deliver the vessel to a dock/storage area near the gulf.
Leisure Craft
Although the majority of the vessels which you will find for sale in Quincy are freshwater, the proximity to Tallahasee, Panama City, and even Fort Walton Beach yields a selection of luxury leisure craft. Boats brands such as Royal, HydraSport, and SeaHunter are not uncommon in the area. Speedboats may be a bit harder to come by, as the area really does not cater to such marine activity apart from perhaps Panama City Beach. Luxury boats tend to have seating for 8 or more persons, so those who need to have a family dual purpose vessel may wish to seek out such.
