Buying a boat from Little River Marine in Appling, 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 Little River Marine which models suit the waterways near Appling, 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 Little River 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 Little River 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. Little River Marine should be able to walk you through the paperwork.

Little River Marine is GREAT place to have work done on your boat. Nick Costello, the owner, and Davis Smith, the technician, are very customer-oriented people. Davis, an outstanding technician, did a superb job of completing a One-Boat-Network installation on my boat. I had started this technical upgrade at one of their competitors. What can I say? Comparing my experiences at these two businesses , ALL future work done on my boat will be done EXCLUSIVELY at Little River Marine.
Great experience! Buying a new boat was a bit overwhelming but their patience and knowledge really helped me make the right choice. Never felt like they were trying to get one over on me. Highly recommended! **Update Nov20: The follow up service has been great. They communicate a timeline for completed service.
Getting my boat fixed here. Carb. has a stuck float. I'll let y'all know about the price and service later.Got my carb. fixed, had more problems, so I bought a new motor.Then a tree fell on my boat, so I bought another used boat. I have had a lot of dealings with this boat shop in the last 3 months. I can tell you they are honest and fair people and do good work. I look forward to doing more business with them.
Great guys here. Very knowledgeable and a speedy service. As a tournament bass fisherman, I worry about who works on my boat but these guys kept my mind at ease and the boat is running great.
Brought my brand new MasterCraft here to have a heater installed and unlike other shops, they didn't keep my boat for a month and they made the heater install look factory. This is the place if you're looking for quality timely service
