For boat owners in Lee County and the surrounding area, Fort Myers Marine is the #1 choice for premium valuations, unrivaled knowledge and an effortless trade-in experience.
The Fort Myers Marine Trade-in Experience
For more than 35 years, Fort Myers Marine has been a trusted resource for boat owners and boating enthusiasts throughout the region.
To make the trade-in experience as efficient and enjoyable as possible, we use a simple, 3-step process.
Step 1: Trade-in Valuation
We pride ourselves in offering you the highest trade-in value for your boat, taking into consideration its total engine hours, maintenance history, hull and interior condition, and any enhancements or electronic upgrades you might have.
Step 2: Selecting Your Next Boat
After we have determined the trade valuation of the boat you own today, we’ll discuss the best options for your next boat. Some of the questions we’ll ask are:
-
What activities do you want to do with your next boat?
-
Will you be operating inshore, offshore or in fresh water?
-
How many people do you anticipate hosting, entertaining, or fishing with on a regular basis?
-
What add-on features best suit your intended use?
-
What design preferences do you have?
Step 3: Getting You Out on the Water
This is the fun part: coordinating the delivery of your new boat!
After any financing paperwork has been processed and your old boat is signed over to us, we’ll ensure your new boat is prepared for its first outing. We’ll conduct a thorough safety inspection, complete any rigging requirements or upgrades, make all necessary engine adjustments and provide you a thorough hands-on orientation with your new boat. The whole experience will
ensure your new boat is ready to give you years of enjoyment.
