Antonietti’s Guide to Buying a Boat

Your Local Experts for Boats for Sale in Hudson & Riverview, Florida

Owning a boat opens up a world of adventure along Florida’s Gulf Coast — from cruising the backwaters to fishing offshore or relaxing at your favorite sandbar. Whether you’re looking for a fishing boat, family boat, or center console, finding the right model starts with understanding your needs.

At Antonietti Marine, we make the boat-buying process simple, transparent, and fun. With locations in Hudson and Riverview, FL, and over 100 new and pre-owned boats in stock, we’re proud to be one of the Tampa Bay area’s most trusted boat dealerships.

What Size Boat Is Right for You?

Choosing the right boat size depends on how — and where — you’ll use it.

Smaller boats (under 20') are great for solo anglers or couples exploring flats, rivers, and lakes. These boats are easier to tow, store, and maintain, making them ideal for first-time buyers.
Mid-size and larger boats (21'–30'+) offer more space and comfort for families, groups, and offshore trips. If you plan to entertain guests or run into deeper waters, a larger model provides better stability and storage.

Also consider your home waters:

For inshore and bay boating, a bay boat or flats boat will perform best.
For offshore fishing and cruising, look for a deep-V center console boat that can handle rougher conditions.

Understanding Boat Hull Designs

Your boat’s hull shape affects performance, comfort, and stability.

Flat-bottom and wide hulls: Excellent for shallow water, allowing you to get close to the action in flats or backcountry areas.
Deep-V hulls: Cut through choppy waves for a smoother ride offshore — a great choice for serious anglers and Gulf adventures.
M-hull designs: Deliver a balanced, stable platform ideal for family boating and moderate chop.

When shopping boats for sale in Hudson or Riverview, think about the conditions you’ll face most often — calm inshore water or offshore swells — and choose accordingly.

How Will You Use Your Boat?

Different activities call for different boat designs.

Fishing: Look for livewells, rod storage, GPS/fish finders, and deck space. Top choices include center console boats, bay boats, and flats boats.
Family cruising & sandbar fun: Choose a model with comfortable seating, swim platforms, Bluetooth sound systems, and plenty of shade.
Water sports: Consider a boat with a strong tow rating, ample power, and a wake-friendly hull design.
