Boats for Sale in Satellite Beach

A refuge for wildlife

Most people know that Florida has an abundance of wildlife and that there are many places in Florida which protects the threatened and endangered species. Satellite Beach is one such area where there is an abundance of wildlife, many of which are protected by Florida law. Because of this, those seeking boats for sale in Satellite Beach may be hard pressed. This is not to say that there are not boats for sale in Satellite Beach, but rather that you should take the following considerations into mind when looking for your vessel.

The wildlife dictates a low power atmosphere

Satellite Beach has several threatened or endangered species which are protected by legislation. For example the Loggerhead Sea Turtle nests on the beaches and sets those next around every 10 feet or so, once a year. You also have the wild bald eagle, the Green Sea turtle, gopher tortoises scrub jay, a finfish nursery, and the West Indian manatees. Due to this, boats which are available in the area will be more apt to be those which have low HP as well as those which meet the requirements for boating in the area. Such boats may include skiffs with low outboard motors, aluminum fishing boats, bass boats, bay boats, and pontoon boats.

Higher Power

There may be a few boats on the western side of Satellite Beach which have a bit more power, specifically when you look close to S. Patrick Dr. and to locations close to 518. You can boat in the Indian River with a Cuddy or Center Console. Yet, it is more beneficial for those who wish to use such boats to take 95 to 528 and access the Atlantic directly through Cape Canaveral or to ride up A1A to Cocoa Beach (a much shorter drive if your vessel can be towed on the narrower road).

Luxury Yachts

Because the beach rests on the water and because there are beaches and access points which are outside of the wildlife area, you may be able to find listings for large luxury cruise yachts, cabin boats, and smaller yachts such as Chris Crafts. It is not expectant that these boats will be located in Satellite Beach, but that they will be at a marina nearby. Remember, most of Satellite beach is consumed with threatened and endangered wildlife part of the year, having a large vessel directly beside the beach would not meet with the zoning and boating legislation. Should you find a luxury yacht or large boat, expect to drive a fair ways up the coast to retrieve it and dock it when not in use.

Angler Boats

While the boats which are dominantly for sale in Satellite Beach are for anglers, finding a spot may require you to go offshore. HydraSport, Grady White, and Sea Vee boats can serve as off shore boats in the Atlantic, able to handle the waves and the weather which could arise. These boats do tend to have multiple motors, and so you would need to access the water by the Indian River.

Another option for the angler would be to go to nearby Lake Washington, Sawgrass Lake, Lake Winder, or Lake Poinsett. You will need to use a trailer to hull your boat, so those looking for boats for sale in Satellite Beach should seek out pre-owned boats which have that included (generally boats which are under 25’).
