Boats for Sale in Reddick

God Be with Us

When you look at Reddick Florida, you will find that there is a consciencious effort to uphold the city’s creed “God Be with Us. It is very community driven, focusing on the business of the city as well as the business of each other. Founded in 1882, Reddick rests just south of Orange Lake and Lachiloosa Lake, East of Highway 75. Those looking for a boat for sale in Reddick will find that the selection is rather lake oriented.

Types of boats in Reddick

As the city of Reddick is located in the central part of Florida with only the Orange lake as the main water source, it can be deducted that the majority of vessels that you will find for sale in Reddick will be oriented to leisure and fishing on Orange Lake. Orange Lake is the largest lake in the North Central region specifically designed for Fish Management. Four types of fish are stocked in the lake: Largemouth Bass, Bluegil, Redear Sunfish, and Black Crappie.

While the lake is huge, it is not deep. On average the water does not get more than 6 feet with the deepest points not exceeding 12 feet. As such, boating on the lake should be done with lighter craft. Bass boats, Skiffs, and low deep angler vessels should be sought for this region. Please note, there are no official marinas or boat docks on Orange lake. Finding a boat for sale in Reddick that you can bring to the water and easily slide in is preferable.

There are a few bodies of water to the South of Reddick, specifically on NW 144^th PL, NW Gainesville Rd., and NW 145^th St., but information on access to these waters could not be found.

Other Water

While it is unlikely that you will find boats for sale in Reddick Florida which are larger crafts, there is the possibility that you will find larger angler boats as there are several areas to the south for fishing. Once you get past Ocala National Forest you have Silver Springs Shores, Lady Lake, Citrus Springs, and Floral City. All of this area is peppered with lakes, creeks, streams, and such.

Those who are looking to buy a boat for the coast would do well to seek boats for the Gulf of Mexico when looking for a boat for sale in Reddick. Granted, the Atlantic, Ormond beach, and Daytona are on the same horizon, the distance to such is greater (about 2 hours) that that to Cedar Key or Homosassa Springs (about an hour’s drive). That being stated, you may find that owners of boats in Reddick have larger craft available but docked on the coast. If you are willing to drive you may get a deal.

Things to look for in your boat

As previously stated, the water depth of Orange Lake and the surrounding area is not too deep. Because of this, those looking at boats for sale in Reddick should give special attention to the durability and the current condition of the hull. Excessive scratching and dings on the hull may be an indicator that the craft sits too deep in shallow waters. There are a few brands which are more apt for shallow water and angler craft, SeaHunter would be one. Look for the brands/manufactured boats used by professionals to have the best results.

Another consideration for the boats for sale in Reddick is the engine. Many boats have the ability to tilt or remove the engine from the back of the vessel. Since the waters are so shallow around the area, having a smaller motor, or one which can be adjusted is preferable.
