Side console power boats place the helm and controls to one side of the cockpit, opening up deck space and improving access for fishing and recreation. They offer a compromise between center-console and cabin layouts, with easy boarding, flexible seating, and good sightlines. Available from small runabouts to larger offshore models, they commonly use outboard engines and modular accessories for tackle, seating, and storage.
Check hull integrity for cracks or repairs, transom and engine mounts, outboard condition and hours, steering and throttle controls, electrical systems, bilge pumps, upholstery, and maintenance records. Inspect for corrosion and water intrusion in hidden areas.
Use a transporter experienced with boats. Choose cradle or trailer shipping depending on size, secure the engine and loose gear, document condition with photos, confirm permits and insurance, and ask about launch/delivery options at the destination.
Follow engine service intervals (oil, filters, lower unit), flush outboards after saltwater use, replace sacrificial anodes, check steering cables and controls, clean hull and scuppers, inspect electrical connections, and winterize or store properly when not in use.
