boat loans
Ok ... I am looking to take out a loan or finance a 91 ,40 hustler. Having trouble getting the loan for around 70,000. Have great credit but still seems nobody wants to give loans. I need a list of a few places that anyone knows that are giving loans in these tuff times. anyone know of marine loan specilists or banks that specialize in boat loans? HELP PLEASE.

After almost a year of shopping boats and loans and insurance, and having at least one or all 3 cause some kind of de railing of the purchase, you better have all 3 in line before you pull the trigger on anything. The banks and insurance companies have re defined their definition of OLD as anything over 1o years.
The ONLY luck I have had is with a credit union. THere is the guy that works for yachtauctions.com. He is very helpful also, but he is limited on the age and values. They usually have to be pretty new, or old and really expensive. Excellent credit has to be a factor before they will look at you.
Check on insurance before you even worry about financing, to make sure you can get that at a reasonable rate before you start bothering the banks.
Good luck. It is tough to buy anything except new chit right now.

X 3 on your local credit union, My credit union did my 96 no problem late last year, And also I called them last week to see if they are still doing loans, And they said yes they are and they said they have no year limits at all at mine. And the average interest rate for good credit starts at 8.90% late last week. But I think you need to use one by you. Good luck.
