High-Output Alternator

An 18-amp alternator helps keep batteries charged and electronics humming throughout the workday.

Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI)

From the moment you crank the engine to the moment you drop the throttle, EFI technology responds with instant power. Surefire starting in all weather conditions. Smooth, efficient acceleration. Maximum capability.

Advanced Tiller

The available Mercury tiller adapts to you, not the other way around. You can reverse the grip for left- or right-handed throttling and adjust the tiller angle laterally and vertically for better leverage and control.

Command Thrust Gearcase

Designed to sit lower in the water and turn larger props, the Command Thrust gearcase lifts heavy boats on plane more easily and holds them there at lower speeds without impacting top speed.

Convenient Maintenance

Spend less time on service and more time on the clock with our no-spill oil change system, easy-access fuel filter and color-coded maintenance touch points.

Quick Acceleration

The single-overhead-cam design delivers instant acceleration and exceptional overall performance from midrange through top speed.

Hard-Working Muscle

With a commercially validated gearcase and ample torque, 40 and 60hp SeaPro outboards make easy work of moving heavy loads.

Buyer’s Guide to Boats and Pontoons

Boats

When you think about it, buying a boat is a little bit like getting married. After all, this is the commitment of a lifetime, and you want to feel confident you’re making the right decision! Fortunately, there are plenty of fish in the sea, and plenty of boats and pontoons to choose from here at Howell’s Marine Sales & Service. The following tips can help you narrow down the options and find your perfect match!

Choosing a Boat

What kinds of activities are you interested in? This should be your guiding question when choosing a boat. If catching fish is on the agenda, you should seek out a fishing boat, with features such as rod holders and livewells. If you want to pursue the excitement of watersports, you should look for a boat with a powerful engine that can reach high speeds. Meanwhile, if you are looking to host parties on the water, a spacious luxury boat will serve you best.

That being said, there’s no need to limit yourself. There are some boats that can cover all your bases! Pontoon boats, for example, are incredibly versatile. We are passionate about pontoon boats here at Howell’s Marine Sales & Service, and we recommend them to our customers who want to get a little bit of everything out of their boating experience.

Budgeting for a Boat

Of course, you can’t talk about buying a boat without discussing all the costs involved! The upfront cost of purchasing a boat can be pretty steep, but the long-term costs are even more important to consider. When budgeting for a boat, remember to account for all the expenses that are going to add up over time – such as fuel, maintenance, and insurance.

Generally speaking, it’s a good idea to set aside at least 10% of your boat’s total value each year for routine maintenance, and another 5% for any unexpected repairs. Meanwhile, you can expect to pay about 1.5% of the total value of your boat annually for insurance coverage.

If you have any questions about the boat buying process, you are always welcome to consult the sales team here at Howell’s Marine Sales & Service! We are always happy to assist. You can find us in Chatham, ON, near London.
