Buying a boat from Bay Marine in Kennesaw, Georgia? Use this guide to evaluate any listing before you commit.
Match the boat to your waters
Pontoons and deck boats suit calm lakes. Deep-V hulls handle chop on larger lakes and coastal water. Center consoles are versatile for fishing. Ask Bay Marine which models suit the waterways near Kennesaw, Georgia.
Inspect the hull carefully
Look for stress cracks, blistering, or repairs on fiberglass hulls. Check the transom for soft spots by pressing firmly — a solid transom feels rigid. Osmotic blistering costs thousands to repair.
Check engine hours
Inboard and outboard engines are typically rated to 1,500–3,000 hours. Low-hour engines with service records are worth more. Ask to see oil change and winterization records for any boat at Bay Marine.
Request a sea trial
Test the boat on the water before buying. Run it at full throttle. Listen for unusual noises. Check that the throttle and steering respond smoothly. Reputable dealers like Bay Marine will accommodate this request.
Verify title and registration
Ask for the current title and confirm the hull identification number (HIN) matches. Check for any liens with your state boating agency. Bay Marine should be able to walk you through the paperwork.
Marine financing has unique terms. Here is what to know before financing a boat through Bay Marine in Kennesaw, Georgia.

Pro Tip
Get pre-approved by your bank before visiting Bay Marine — it gives you a rate to compare against dealer financing.

Wow what an outstanding boat dealer. I have owned many boats and have visited a lot of boat dealers in the last few years after losing my boat in Hurricane Ian. Greg, my salesman, was awesome and provided A+++ service. He was upfront with all the details on the boat and did not misrepresent the boat to me in any way when I was talking to him on the phone and emails. He was flexible on setting up my appointment to view the boat and had the boat inside a heated building all set up prior to my arrival. The boat was just like he stated, in like new condition. No lies just the honest truth. I went forward with the purchase and since I lived out of state Greg assisted me on the survey, setting up a shipper and doing the repairs needed per the survey. I am excited to receive the boat and start using it. Thank you Greg and your team for working with me with such integrity and helping me figure out all the details. My V255 OB is home on my lift.

Absolutely wonderful marine great owners and great employees they truly care about there customers me and my fiance came in looking for something not too expensive but still fun to have with some friends out on the lake pulling a tube and they had just what we were looking for and was able to help us out on the price words can’t express how appreciative I am with how I was treated and taken care of while I was there. If you or your friends are looking into getting a boat I’d highly recommend bay marine they are truly amazing and won’t pressure you into buying anything you don’t want. When me and my fiance purchased the boat we thought would be amazing they went over and beyond and made sure everything was 110% with the boat and the trailer and made sure every light and everything was good to go and that me and my fiance has everything required that we needed just truly an amazing place definitely go check them out !!
I've been a customer at Bay Marine for 10 years and have only had fantastic experiences. Everyone is incredibly helpful and knowledgeable and knows you by your name. I would recommend Bay Marine to ANYONE. Just had a brand new Garmin Force Kraken installed on my 2013 Cobia that I bought new from Bay Marine and the workmanship was amazing. Five stars isn't enough!
It's a 90 minute drive for me to go to Bay Marine (and 90 minutes back) but it is so worth it. The quality of the work they do is exceptional - and for a fair price. Angie and the guys are very helpful and friendly. If you don't go there for your boating needs, you need to. You're missing out if you don't.
I have had nothing but great experiences with Bay Marine. I bought my Triton 179TRx from them in 2018. I have had all of my service needs met by Bay Marine and trust them to keep my boat in tip top shape. They are courteous, kind, and reliable. Most of all, they are very good in setting expectations in the work that needs to be performed and the time you can expect for service. I will always use them to service my boat.
