Boats for Sale in Titusville

Get ready to boat on the Atlantic

There are many beaches in Florida and cities along the panhandle, and Titusville is one such location. Located directly on the Indian River, it is within driving distance of Daytona, New Smyrna Beach, Edgewater, and Palm Bay. Because of the proximity to so many large cities and beaches, Titusville is a prime location to look for a pre-owned boat. Here are a few things that you should know about the location.

Indian River boating and fishing

Titusville, composed of around 50,000 residences, is within Brevard County. Being that the county rests upon the Indian River with direct access to the Atlantic, many boats for sale in Titusville are oriented to offshore fishing and to freshwater angler purposes. Also, due to the ability to offshore fish, the size of the vessels tends to be higher. Multi-tier hardtops are common as they allow for you to see the ocean and the fish from a different vantage point. Triple, quad, or even five engine configurations are also common as, again, the area is more prone to offshore fishing than to inshore fishing.

There are a great many boats which are for sale for fishing in the Indian River. Boat seekers should note that Brevard County, specifically the Indian River, has strict fishing regulations. According to the Florida regulations, all Black Bass must be released immediately upon catch. This is different from the standard bagging limit which allows for 5 Black Bass. Other restrictions may apply for Titusville boating and fishing, so check with the local zoning and boating authorities.

Because the Indian River is a bit deeper than some of the inland water, you may not need to have the power pole anchoring. It is beneficial that you have one, especially if you plan on using the boat in various locations, but it may not be mandatory. A secondary anchor for offshoring may be more preferred.

Inland Boating Waters

Apart from the Indian River, there are several inland freshwater sources where you could use a bay boat, a skiff, a small Boston Whaler, Intrepid, Yellowfin, or Sea Vee. These locations include Ruth lake, South Lake, Salt Lake, Loughman Lake, Buck Lake, Puzzle Lake, St. John’s River, Lake Harney, and various small ponds and access points. Each of these locations has its own set of bag and length regulations, and the depth of these waters vary. Ensure that (a) the area is not restricted by the wildlife preservation act, and (b) that the depth of the water is suitable for your craft. Some vessels claim to be suited for shoals, bays, rivers, and shallow water but have proven to scrub quite a bit when launching.

Atlantic Boating

Direct access to the Atlantic is blocked by the John F. Kennedy Space center. And while you can watch the launches from Titusville and your yacht for that matter, it is problematic for those who wish to offshore fish. There is banana Creek and you can access the Atlantic by Allenhurst as well. However, it may be more cost effective and less taxing on the owner to have a docking or marina agreement in nearby Cape Canaveral as this gives a no hinderance access to the Atlantic and offshore options. This option is essential for those purchasing the 45 to 65-foot boats, such as the soon to be debuted 65’ Center Console HydraSport custom fishing boat.

Most of the boats that you will find will have a Deep Vee hull as these boats are more common in the boating industry, especially for boats which are to be used for offshore purposes. Do not expect to find too many catamarans, sailboats, airboats, or skiffs for sale, but rather cabin cruisers, Center Consoles, and Custom Performance Yachts.
