Whether buying or selling, Crate's Lake Country Boats can handle all of your brokerage needs. We have a full time staff of 6 Certified Sales Professionals with our bricks and mortar brokerage office centrally located on Lake Simcoe. Our high-traffic location is well known to boat buyers and this ensures our listings receive a high degree of in-person exposure!

Crate's specializes in fresh water boats and has some of the best boats for sale in Ontario. Our brokerage list isn't the longest but that's because we're picky about what we sell! With so many boats for sale across North America, we know it's daunting for buyers to try and sift through the junk to find a good boat at a fair price. At Crate's Lake Country Boats we try and take the guess work out of the process so you can buy with confidence.

We know Canadian boaters want to buy local boats with local service histories and inspected by local surveyors, but only if the price is competitive. That's where our Boating Ontario Certified Sales Professionals excel. The Crate's team knows how to guide sellers with detailed market evaluations and sound advice on how to be competitive in a competitive market. We also go the extra mile to advise buyers on how to identify a quality boat and a fair price; because experience shows a low asking price doesn't necessarily mean a good deal.
