3 Unexpected Benefits of Owning a Boat

If owning a boat is one of your life's biggest goals, we know what you mean! There's just something satisfying in knowing that you can go out on the water whenever you want, feel the wind in your face and the warm sun on your back. Whether you enjoy water sports, fishing, or just riding the water's surface, there are so many benefits to owning a boat at the Lake of the Ozarks. Here are three benefits that we've found to be unexpected when owning a boat.


Boating Can Help Reduce Stress

This is certainly an unexpected result of buying a boat, but there's nothing quite like hitting the water after a stressful day. When you ride across the water's surface, you get to take advantage of fresh air and the sunshine (aka vitamin D), can improve your mood no matter how bad the work week has been. It's amazing what a few hours of relaxation can provide perspective on a stressful situation - and you'll find this new point of view behind the wheel of your boat.

Boating Can Bring About Family Bonding

If you've been wanting to find a way to enjoy more time with your family, you may find that a boat can bring you all together. No matter where your families interest may lie, it's easy to bring them together when you offer to take them out on the boat. Boating can fit all types of personalities, so whether you have a sporty kid who loves to catch the waves on the water skis, or a child who just loves to lay back and soak up the sun, boating can be a great way to bring them all together. It's hard to turn down a boat ride!


Boating Can Be an Affordable Alternative for Recreational Activities

When you add up all of the different recreational activities a family may do, from going to the movies, going out to dinner, and even renting watercraft - an affordable alternative may be to just buy a boat instead. Boating is a great recreational activity, and unlike some, it matches all types of personalities and demographics. You can easily take your teenager and their friends out on the boat for a great time, and then turn around and take your parents out for a sunset cruise. You may find that everyone wants to go out on the boat after you get it *wink*.

The weather is getting increasingly more beautiful, and if you haven't been out on your boat yet this year - the water is probably calling to you. Before you hit the Lake, though, it's important to take a few necessary steps to get your boat ready for a day on thewater. De-winterizing your boat in the spring is just as important as winterizing it in the fall - and Village Marina is here to help. Here are a few thoughts on the importance of summarizing your boat at the Lake of the Ozarks , and how your local boat service department at the Lake of the Ozarks can help. Make Sure Your Boat is Ready to Hit the Water Having your boat de-winterized is important because if it was winterized, you won't be able to start it right up.

Our dock is fully serviced with with food, drinks and tube rentals. Before you enjoy your weekend on the water, here are a few safety tips to remember when filling your gas tank! 1. No matter where you are refueling, always clear the area of people who are not directly involved with fueling the boat. 2. Put out all smoking materials and extinguish all open flames. 3.  Be sure to secure your boat to the dock, and turn off the engine and all electronics. 4. Keep the nozzle in contact with the edge of the fill to prevent build up of static electricity to prevent sparking. 5. Do not top off your tank. Know how much fuel your tank holds and fill it to about 90%, since fuel expands as temperatures rise. 6. Clean up fuel spills immediately with an oil-only absorbent pad.
