What should I buy for my new boat?

[LindaDLS]

I ordered a 2022 Yamaha 212SE and was told it should be here by June. Super excited as we are new boat owners! What I want to know is what are the top things we should start buying for our boat that we need?

Safety gear… self inflating PFD’s since you forget you have them on, and a few extra regulation type PFD’s.
Dock lines, longer than you think you need
Boat hook
Fenders
sun block
sun hats
gasoline.

Until then, watch docking videos, boat ramp etiquette vids.

There is a lot that can do for your boat. Things that I find necessary is all your safety gear, a battery tender, and any thing that we as a community have found to be problematic. Those problematic things being (Anchor locker drain and Scupper valve). You might ask do I really need to do these right away. Probably not but it will save you a lot of time and possibly money in the future. Next up on the list would be things that protect your boat. Like a nice spray on protective coating for your vinyl seats. Then of course all of your modification youll want to do either now or later. Window tint, speaker upgrade (i have a 252sd and don’t think an upgrade is necessary atm), LEDs, and anything else you find fitting or desirable). Good luck! Have fun!
