This depends on the consignment agreement. Some dealers allow the seller to keep the boat at home and bring it in for showings, which permits continued use. Others require the boat to live on their lot throughout the consignment period, which prevents personal use. Clarify this term before signing. Note that using a consigned boat adds hours to the engine and increases wear, which dealers will note if significant use occurs during the consignment period.
Can I still use my boat while it is on consignment?
