If a used boat is not in the NADA guide how hard is it to get financing?

I have no way of looking at the BUC guides at the moment, so I don't know whether they're in there or not.

Since the insurance rates have scared me away from cats I'm intrigued by Progression 24 & 27 and Superboat Y2K. None of which are in the online NADA.

If you can get "spec" sheets from the builder, that will help (with insurance).

Mine is not on the NADA and it never even came up. I had a survey in hand and that was all the local bank needed. I did a re-fi a couple months after the original purchase w/ National City to get a better rate and it never came up with them either. I also had no problems getting quotes and securing insurance.

When I financed my 1986 Sutphen, the NADA value never came up. My credit limit was determined by my credit score.

They did require a survey, but did not mention the appraised value in the paperwork.
