Buying a boat from HBG Yacht Sales in Knoxville, Tennessee? 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 HBG Yacht Sales which models suit the waterways near Knoxville, Tennessee.
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 HBG Yacht Sales.
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 HBG Yacht Sales 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. HBG Yacht Sales should be able to walk you through the paperwork.

Typical Loan Terms

After dealing with another yacht broker in Knoxville, TN who could not locate a boat for us, I called Robbie Casey at HBG Yachts and within a week he located us a mint condition SeaRay 410. Their customer service is amazing and very professional. My next boat will be bought from HBG Yachts! Thank you HBG Yachts and Robbie Casey!
Colin and Alex meticulously handled everything from start to finish with the sale of our boat--great people that delivered on everything they promised. The made the hassle of buying and selling a vessel look easy!
A+ experience dealing with HBG. Colin and Donnie were great. Very professional, knowledgeable and responsive - these guys made what can be an annoying process (boat buying) easy. Highly recommend.
I can’t say enough great things about my experience with HBG. I met with Alex Daly originally and then Robbie Casey took it from there. He negotiated on my behalf and was even able to get the seller to agree to some extras that wouldn’t take place until after the season 🙌 Robbie is phenomenal and so responsive! In addition to be very personable and not at all pushy, his level of customer service is bar none! Unfortunately, that is very rare these days. This was my first time using a boat broker and it truly was the best experience ever. I HIGHLY recommend HBG Yacht Sales and honestly can’t imagine buying a boat without them.
My first experience with HBG Yacht Sales was for selling our 29' Sea Ray Sundancer. We worked with Robbie Casey and Colin Daley - and the experience far exceeded our expectations. HBG did everything - from advising us on how to best present our boat to pricing. They made the entire effort painless - and incredibly smooth and professional. They found a buyer for us in a few days and stepped us through every little details for closing the deal. We decided at that point to work with them to find a new boat that would fit our lifestyle. We highly recommend HBG Yacht Sales for both selling and purchasing your dream boat - whatever it may be.
