I second this. I've seen many clients who are buying boats right now using local credit unions. I also spoke to the VP of Union Bank of Arizona and she said they will lend on any type of boat, where some of the bigger banks won't lend on performance boats. It's worth a try!

I just overnighted the paperwork back to Chesapeake finanicail. Bought a 2000 Baja Outlaw 33 for 50k. Putting down $4900 and its 8.99 for 15 years. They put me with Wilmington Trust. I will share the whole experience once I close this week on the boat but I would definetly try them as he got the deal done.

Try State Farm insurance they also do bank loans as I have sent some of my boat buying customer over to them. They have been loaning to good credit scores. it has been tough to get any loans for boats done. Most of my loans are for under 35K. Hope this helps.

I never had any experience with them...I'm from PA. They approved it in a couple hours and only requested the survey,and income verification. Credit and income are extremely strong, they are loaning 50 on a 50k purchase price....I'm putting down 4900 in fees and taxes.(coast guard documentation, Gap ins. etc.). Like I said, they sent all the contracts and documents which I just overnighted back. Pretty much a done deal.
