Boats for Sale in Windermere, Florida

A town among the lakes

Windermere obtained its first post office in 1888 which would, for some, be the point in which the town began. However, it was not really until the 1925 charter that the city began to see growth, and many consider this to be the pivotal point in which the town was made. Regardless, the city has seen growth. Butler bay has been annexed into Windermere as of 2007 growing the town even further. Because of the proximity as well as the ever-growing populace, those seeking a boat for sale in Windermere may be able to find an ample supply of fishing boats as well as recreational vessels. If you are a potential boat buyer in Windermere, here is what you should know.

Central Located

Windermere is located in the central part of Florida as well as central to a congestion of fresh water spots running down the middle of the state. Specifically, Windermere is located to the west of Orlando, north of highway 4 and to the south of Winter Garden. The lakes which are well known in the area include Lake Apopka, Lake Tohopekaliga, Lake Monroe, Lake Harris, Lake Griffin, Lake Louisa, Lake Minehaha, Lake Tibet, Lake Cornway, Turkey Lake, Lake Butler, Lake Burden, Spring Lake, Lake Down, Lake Reams, Bay Lake, Lake Sheen, and Big Sand Lake. These are but a few of the ponds and lakes which are in the area. For Windermere the three primary lakes are Lake Butler, Lake Down, and Lake Tibet.

Fishing on Lake Butler is great for Largemouth Bass, Small Mouth bass, Lake Butler, Catfish, Spotted Bass, and White Bass. As bass is the more popular fish, bass boats may be the most popular pre-owned vessel that you will find in the area. However, you may find the Vee bottom fishing boats available in the Windermere Florida area. Check with the local water authority to ensure that you have the right outboard motor for your fishing boat. Boat brands to look for would be Everglades, Boston Whaler, SeaHunt, SeaHunter, Yellowfin, and Jupiter.

Saltwater boating

While you will have the most success in purchasing a pre-owned freshwater flat bottom boat, fish around, or bass boat from Windermere, you may be able to find a few boats for Atlantic or Gulf offshore fishing. This is primarily the result of Orlando being close by. Access to the Gulf and to the Atlantic is somewhat of a drive, in either direction. The best way to access either would be to take interstate 4 to Daytona (if going to the Atlantic) or interstate 4 to Tampa (if going to the Gulf). It is advised that if you are purchasing a Yacht, a Center Console Custom boat, or a Cabin Cruiser that you use interstate 4 as the smaller roads around Windermere may be too narrow for safe navigation of larger boats, a combination of the wetness from the abundance of ponds and lakes and the construction of the smaller roads.

What to expect on outboards from Windermere

The outboards from Windermere are very apt to be single and double engine configurations. Older models may have a twin stroke engine rather than the newer and more popular four stroke outboards. Mercury and Yamaha will be the more popular of the engines in the area. It is unlikely that you will find outboards with Seven Marine outside of the Orlando area. So, if you see a listing for a boat for sale in Windermere with such, ask if the boat is docked in Daytona, Tampa, or Orlando.
