“I bought a boat from Marine Max/Chandler Daggett back in 2015. They are excellent to work with in all capacities. Chandler was the best on the front end and the service department is top notch. I couldn't recommend more.“

Boat Financing FAQs

What is boat financing and how does it work?

Boat financing allows you to borrow money to purchase a boat and pay it off over time, typically with monthly payments. Loans can come from marine lenders, banks, credit unions, or through boat dealers and brokers. Terms vary based on loan amount, credit score, and boat type.

What types of boats can be financed?

Most lenders finance new and used powerboats, sailboats, pontoon boats, and personal watercraft. Some also finance liveaboards, houseboats, and yachts, but loan terms may differ depending on the boat’s age, condition, and usage.

What are typical loan terms for boat financing?

Loan terms typically range from 5 to 20 years. Shorter terms may have higher monthly payments but lower overall interest costs. Longer terms reduce monthly payments but increase total interest paid. Your credit profile and loan size will influence the options available to you.

What credit score is needed to finance a boat?

Most marine lenders prefer a credit score of 680 or higher, though some may approve loans with lower scores at higher interest rates. A strong credit history, low debt-to-income ratio, and proof of income improve your chances of approval.

Can I get pre-approved for a boat loan?

Yes, many lenders and financing services offer pre-approvals. This helps you understand how much you can afford before shopping and strengthens your offer when buying from a dealer or private seller. Pre-approval usually involves a credit check and financial review.

What is the difference between secured and unsecured boat loans?

Secured loans use the boat as collateral and typically offer lower interest rates and longer terms. Unsecured loans don’t require collateral but usually come with higher rates and shorter terms. Most boat loans are secured.

How much should I expect for a down payment?

Typical down payments range from 10% to 20% of the boat’s purchase price. Higher down payments can reduce your monthly payments and improve your loan terms. Some lenders may offer 0% down for well-qualified buyers.

Can I finance a used boat or a private party sale?

Yes, many lenders finance used boats, including those purchased from individuals. The boat may need to meet certain age and condition requirements. Be prepared to provide documentation like a bill of sale, title, and proof of insurance.
