A checklist will help you in keeping an eye on the important things you need to keep in mind and also as a reminder of the things that you need to do. In order to arrive at an informed decision, you need to use a checklist.

The primary thing to do on your checklist will be to ask around from friends and colleagues who also own boats for a proper recommendation to address your needs. If this does not pan out for you then you can always go online for answers. Do check out local forums that will deal with the subject and ask members from these forums for assistance in pointing you in the right direction.
