Buying a boat from Intrinsic Yacht & Ship in Annapolis, Maryland? 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 Intrinsic Yacht & Ship which models suit the waterways near Annapolis, Maryland.
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 Intrinsic Yacht & Ship.
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 Intrinsic Yacht & Ship 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. Intrinsic Yacht & Ship should be able to walk you through the paperwork.

i have been using Intrinsic help me maintain my boat in Annapolis for three seasons now. Big thanks to the team at Intrinsic helping me with routine maintenance and my winter decommissioing and spring commissioning. easy to talk to, reasonable pricing and problem solving to help with those addiitional services like captaining the boat when i cannot be there to make it all happen.
It’s very difficult to find a good service center for the newer multi engine boats around the Ocean City MD region. I contacted Intrinsic in West OC and they did everything they said they would and within the time frame they said it would take.
My experience with Intrinsic was everything my wife and I had hoped for. Bob's customer service, honesty and expertise was 10 stars! He understood our concern about problems with the boat (under warranty) that needed to be addressed, and made sure the Manufacturer understood why it was an issue that occurred from the factory. The work was meticulous and done right, while keeping me informed along the way. They don't cut corners...I highly recommend!
Intrinsic is the BEST!! We are all busy with our work and family obligations which often prevent us from spending time on our boats and enjoying what the Chesapeake Bay has to offer. And nothing is worse than finally getting out on your boat only to discover there is a problem with your engine or the head or a pump or whatever. Thank God for Intrinsic. They know boats and they know engines but really sets them apart is that they know how important your time is. They can fix everything, keep your boat running great for years, but best of all, they are quick and responsive. Websters definition of "Intrinsic" is essential. I couldn't agree more. They have been essential and directly proportionate to my happiness as a boater. Thank you Intrinsic!
Intrinsics service is top notch. Bob and his team are incredibly responsive. They do spectacular work on time at a fair price. They follow up to make sure I am satisfied. As important they are a pleasure to work with. I cannot recommend them enough!
