Get Out on the Water This Fall!

2:04 PM

The leaves are beginning to change colors, the temperatures are dropping, and the rivers and lakes are becoming less congested as boaters wind down for the year. While you may be getting ready to stash away your summer flip flops, there’s no reason your enjoyment on the water has to end! With the feeling of fall in the air, we thought we’d delve into what we love about the fall season. Perhaps it'll entice YOU to get back out on the water and enjoy a little fall boating yourself!


Picturesque Landscapes
We all love being on the water in the hot summer heat and sunshine… but there’s something really special about cruising amongst the rich orange, red and yellow trees fall is known for, too! In most places, there will be a noticeable difference in the look of your surroundings in the coming months, so that’s something to look out for. Some boaters will even take their fall excursions a step further and plan a destination trip specifically to see these beautiful autumnal changes! Fall foliage road trip, anyone?

Comfortable Cruising
You’re probably ready to say “goodbye” to at least one part of summer: high temperatures! The start of fall means the start of a gradual cool-down trend that we can all enjoy… at least for a little while! And for us boaters in the Midwest, that just means more enjoyable, quieter days out on the water. There’s nothing like crisp autumn air to make us excited to be outside! This time of year also means that boaters are out less often, making waters a little calmer and more enjoyable for those who just enjoy fishing in a quiet cove or basking in the beauty of nature without being rocked by wake after wake.

Quality Time
Between kids’ school days and your own work commitments, you probably have more time to boat during summer than in fall—but during the fall season, you may find that the time you get for boating and family time becomes even more meaningful. And though, we don't get to spend as much time in the fall that we want to on the boat, less time on the boat doesn’t have to be a negative! Use your added downtime to catch up on your favorite travel or boating magazines, brush up on key skills or take this time to pay special attention to detailing your boat.

Better Deals
The boating off season comes with one big bonus—better deals! During the fall months, be sure to visit boat shows and expos and take a look at what seasonal sales may be going on. You may be surprised to find that your dream boat is a bit more in reach than you thought! It's also a fantastic time to start looking into upgrading your boat and dock with top of the line marine electronic equipment. For information on some of the finest wireless electronic equipment for the recreational marine industry, check out the boat lift remote controls by Firstmate.

While traditionally, fall is associated with warm fires and pumpkin patches, we as boaters know there’s so much more to the season. So don't waste any of the precious time you still have to get out on the water this fall. Get out more quickly and safely with a Firstmate boat lift remote control system!
