To help out a fellow brother, from what I have found out if you are looking at used older than 5 years, expect to put something down.
I am going to use my home equity to get around that, and I can write off the interest that way. Unless you get the right options in a boat you cannot write it off as a second home. Also the interest rates tend to be better than you can get with a boat loan. |

With a 780 credit score, I can get you no money down up to $149,999. Give me a call if you have any specific questions. Thanks, Kyle

I am looking at a 97 Powerquest 26 Legend XL @ 30K. I contacted Dave P and he could not help without $$down. I don't have our credit scores handy but I think it was above 750 and the wife was 780. |

The parameters are 8 years and newer boats and the minimum credit score is determined by the loan amount - higher the loan, the higher the score needed. Max engine size is single or twin 525's.

I too hate putting money down, but looking at a 10yr old boat everyone says I have too. I don't know what the difference is when it comes to the age of the boat. I find the max age of the boat pretty dumb, my credit should be the determining factor.
You find me a 0% down loan for a 97 boat @ 30K and I will call. |

You find me a 0% down loan for a 97 boat @ 30K and I will call. 1. your buying a rapidly depreciating product, putting no money down can get you upside down in the loan. If the bank has to take the boat back they want to be a ble to bail out of it the best they can. 2. Regardless of your credit score, a bank may look at, why can't you put 10% down? 30K is only $3K. also- someone said in this thread, use a home equity and write off the interest.... double check that..It's my uderstanding the interest can only be written off if the $ is used on the home. |
I would rather spend my money for things on the boat, taxes, registration, titling and insurance.
It is not that I don't have the money, just would rather spend it my way. So I guess that means the loan companies with the cash don't want to talk to me. |
