Financing a 100+ MPH Cat??
Is it even possible to finance a 100+ MPH cat anymore? It seems nobody is willing to finance them anymore. If so, what are the requirements and who is doing it? Thanks!

Boy am I waiting for these answers!!!

I think Bank of the west still finances them through Essex. Be prepared to pay a fortune for insurance if you finance.
You can also finance one by refinancing your house and get out of paying for a good portion of the insurance by just carrying liability. |
New boat financing is not dead. However, it is very tough.
Often you will need 800+ on your credit score, 20-25% downpayment, AND still have 20-25% left over in LIQUID assets. |
Crazylt1, I have a guy ...720 minimum score, 20-30% down, 100mph should not be an issue. Call me 269.208.5321 I'll hook ya up with my guy. Thanks, Marc

try sterling boat bankers...they seemed reasonable when i was in the market for a boat loan
they do require 20% cost of the boat as do many loaners... |

and this is why I deal only with Navy Federal Credit Union... When looking at buying a new or used boat this past spring the only thing the bank required of me was to pick up the check. They didn't ask what kind, how fast or for any money down. The only thing that factored into how much I spent was wanting to buy another house this winter when prices drop even lower.

Try your local Credit Union they did not ask about speed, they just wanted to see the value was there on the boat. Thats who we got our's from.
