Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get a reliable boat for under $30,000 in Nashville?+

Absolutely. The Nashville used boat market has solid options in the $15,000–$30,000 range — particularly pontoons from the mid-2000s to early 2010s and bowriders in the 18-21 ft range. The key is buying from a dealer who actually inspects the boats. At Bill's, every boat is checked before it goes on the lot, so you know what you're getting.

What's a good first boat to buy in Nashville under $30,000?+

For most first-time buyers, we recommend a 20-22 ft pontoon or a bowrider in the 18-20 ft range. Both are easy to operate, easy to dock, and forgiving for newer boaters. A pontoon in the $18,000–$28,000 range gives you space, stability, and enough room for the whole family. Call (629) 245-2628 and we can talk through what fits your situation.
