Question Boat loan rates....

With the boat shows coming up I was wondering what kind of percentage rates some of you guys have on your boat loans and what kind of terms....I have called around recently and the best I have come up with was 5% on a 20 year fixed.....or a 4.6% on a 3 year variable....I think the avg. boat buyer keeps his boat for around three years.....Does anyone have any great deals to be had out there???? Lets hear them.....Rich

Yep....I thought those were fairly reasonable....I think we probably wont see them like this for awhile once the election is over......so the time to make a deal on a new rig is probably in the near future if you are going to do it.....

If you can get 5% fixed for 20 years-----Get it!!! Thats about as low as I have heard of in the last year.

Wow....that is a good deal....that 5% on a 20yr loan was an essex quote....I guess they must have gone up a little since then.......great deal.....
