6 Items That Will Help Upgrade Your Boat’s Value

30 Jan 24

Do you want to upgrade your Quintrex boat’s value and install more features in it? Upgrades can be improving some parts of your boat or adding accessories to embellish it. There are a lot of valuable options, accessories, and equipment that can improve the overall look of your boat, make it safer for everyone on board, and make it more exciting and fun all at the same time.

This article lists down all the fun yet easy upgrades to add to your boat. What’s also great is that most of these upgrades are items that you can find in your local boat dealers (such as us here at Boats Galore) and marine shops.

LED Cabin Lighting

If you want to add a nice warm ambience or a cool vibe on board, why don’t you change and upgrade your lighting? Install recessed LED lights or LED lighting strips under counters or seats, or in nooks and crannies. It’s up to you what kind of lighting you’re aiming for so get creative with what style and light colour you will choose. LED lights are sustainable which means they save a lot of energy compared to traditional light bulbs so you don’t have to worry about increased lighting costs.

Underwater LED Boat Lights

While we’re on the topic of lights, why not go all out by adding bright underwater lights? The lights will illuminate your surroundings when you’re boating at night impressing your fellow boaters and guests on board. Try choosing colourful lights to add fun and excitement to your boat’s appearance.

Decking and Carpet                    

Check your boat’s deck and carpet. Are they starting to look shabby? If they are losing their vibrant colours and are looking a bit weathered, well, it’s time to change them. You can go to a boat dealer who offers detailing services to customise your flooring for you or you can do it yourself in your aesthetic preference.

Fishing Rod Holders

If you’re a fisherman, you know that while fishing rods are essential equipment for fishing; however, they can be bulky and storing them can be a hassle as the lines could get tangled up together if you don’t store them properly.

A fishing rod holder is useful in separating rods from each other. You can easily install rod holders in your boat. You can mount them on the side or you can get a fishing rod holder stand. Another great thing about rod holders is you can add more fishing rods that you can bring on board and not worry about the mess they tend to make.

Stereo System

Diminish the boredom and dullness in the boat when you reach a lull while you’re out on the water by adding a stereo system. Think about this, you can play banging tunes on top volume in the middle of the ocean without anyone complaining about the noise. Plus, music sets the mood and even energizes you. Make sure to get a good stereo system that has nice acoustics so your music plays out well.

Bimini Top

This is one of the most important boating accessories you need to have if you have an open boat, such as a Renegade boat. A Bimini top can protect everyone onboard from the scalding heat of the sun by providing a full cover shade on the boat. A Bimini top can prevent anyone from getting sunburns plus it makes your boat look great with it.
