Summer is Officially Here!!

Today is finally the first of summer!  Nothing says summer fun, like boating.  Whether you are taking the kids wakeboarding or water skiing, or you are setting out on a weekend cruise; boating is fun in the sun.  Depending on where you are in the country, you may have been having warm summer temperatures already or like some of us here in the Northwest waiting for summer-its here.

If you are new to boating, I recommend heading over to DiscoverBoating.com.  They are a great resource to finding out what boat and where would best suit you.

If you're already a boat owner, head over to BargainBoatParts.com and check our current deals and summer offers.  Remember to check back often , as we continue to add products and deals!

Happy and Safe Boating,

Trailer Time

Summer is fast approaching and the boat is going in the water, or hopefully there already!  Now is the time to inspect and repair the trailer.  Here is a quick checklist:

-Make sure your coupler, hitch and hitch ball are all the same size
-Make sure your safety chains are proper length and secured to the trailer.
-All fasteners are properly tightened
-Wheel lug nuts are properly tightened
-Check the condition of your winch strap and winch
-Make sure you have proper transom straps and tie downs.  Your winch strap is not a tiedown!
-Check your trailer tire condition and air pressure, and don't forget the spare
-Check to see if your brakes are properly adjusted and in good condition (if equipped)
-Check all lighting to insure it is all working and visible

Performing any repairs to your trailer is much easier with the boat off, and preventing any failures is always a good idea.  Of course if you need any parts or item for your trailer BargainBoatParts.com has you covered.

Happy and Safe Boating!
