Why Buy Your Used Airboat From Patriot

Buying a used airboat from a stranger is a gamble. The listing says “runs great,” the seller knows less than he lets on, and the day something rattles loose, that phone number stops answering. Every used boat at Patriot goes through a shop that’s been building airboats for over 25 years, and we’re still here after you take it home.

A Builder's Eye On Every Boat

The people evaluating our used boats build airboats for a living, and they know exactly where lesser boats hide their problems.

We've Seen Every Brand

Pre-owned boats of all makes come through our shop, so we know how each one is built, how it holds up, and what to check before it's offered.

Straight Answers On Condition

You'll hear what the boat is, what it's been through, and what it may need down the road. No "runs great" and a shrug.

Engines We Actually Know

We rig and work on these powerplants every week, so the motor in your used boat isn't a mystery to the people selling it.

Matched To How You'll Run It

Tell us where you go and what you do out there. If a boat on the lot is wrong for your water, we'll say so.

Somebody To Call Afterward

You're buying from a real shop in Vidor with a phone that gets answered, not a seller who disappears after the trailer leaves the driveway.

got questions about our pre-owned boats?

Don’t see your question? Not to worry, give us call – we’re happy to help!

Can you send me more pictures or a walkaround video?

Yes. If you’re serious, we’ll send additional photos and videos—cold start, idle, rigging, polymer, whatever you want to see.

Call the shop at: 409-422-0006, and tell us what you’re trying to verify.

Yes—for serious buyers. If you’re making the trip or ready to move forward, we’ll schedule a water test so you can see it run how it’s supposed to.

They’re ready to run. Our shop goes through them before they’re listed—if we don’t trust it, we don’t sell it.

Do you accept trade-ins?

  • Yes. For new boat purchases, we do accept trade-ins. Share a few details (brand, size, power, photos), and our team will let you know what it may be worth toward your build.

Do you offer consignment on used boats?

  • Yes. We do offer consignment for select used airboats. If you’re interested, give us a call and we’ll go over the boat, pricing expectations, and how the process works.

What if I have something unique or a deal worth discussing?

  • We’re always open to the right deal. If you’ve got something worthwhile, reach out—send us the details and we’ll tell you quickly whether it’s a fit and what we can do.

Used boats can move quick. If you want one held, call us—depending on the boat, we can lock it down with a deposit and set a pickup date.

Yes. If you’re out of state, we can help coordinate shipping and make sure you’ve got what you need before it leaves.
