Boat Buyer's Guide – DRI Boat Sales and Service

Buying a boat from DRI Boat Sales and Service in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina? Use this guide to evaluate any listing before you commit.

  1. 1

    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 DRI Boat Sales and Service which models suit the waterways near Murrells Inlet, South Carolina.

  2. 2

    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.

  3. 3

    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 DRI Boat Sales and Service.

  4. 4

    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 DRI Boat Sales and Service will accommodate this request.

  5. 5

    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. DRI Boat Sales and Service should be able to walk you through the paperwork.

I was very pleased at how knowledgeable Glenn Pippin is about the Gamefish 25. But, most of all, his professionalism, courtesy, honesty and integrity were outstanding. While your Sea Hunt competitor was frustrated with me shopping at the boat show, Glenn remained calm and professional and provided lucid and reasoned answers to my inquiries. Since my purchase, Glenn provided after purchase support as well. Gary from the service department has been fantastic too. He is very experienced and provides top notch advice and support for the add-ons to my boat and boating questions. He and his service team are expert and efficient! In my 40 years of owning various boats, I’ve not come across a better team of sales and service anywhere else. I will be loyal to MSC for sure! Joe

I cannot say enough great things about Glenn Pippin and his team! From the first inquiry, Glenn followed up, answered all of my questions. The boat was accurately described and we were beyond pleased after making the drive to pick up our new (slightly used boat). Glenn even checked in later that night to make sure my son and I made it home safely. Class act all the way around, from sales to finance!

I drove 12 hrs. to make sure I dealt with the right type of people for my boat purchase. Glenn and the entire staff were all up front and genuine, not to mention the best pricing in the country! I saved over 20k and had the best service one could hope for.

The best experience ever. I am a female trying to do my first 20 hour service on my Yamaha 90. Gary was amazing. Gave me all the confidence in the world that I could do this in my own. He shared a few tips, gave me a couple of heads up and made me feel so confident. Great experience all the way around. Thank you.

Glenn was the best salesman I’ve met. No pressure or hassle and answered every phone call or text in a timely manner. I drove over 2 hours because of Glenn. Nice clean dealership, good price and overall a wonderful buying experience. Would definitely recommend Marine Service Center and specifically Glenn Pippin!
