look at credit unions that are close to you most banks don't want to loan money on older boats especially performance boats

what is your rate?........and you want a 15 yr note on an 18 year old boat? Whats that payment, $100 a month?


I agree banks won't touch it and doubt anyone will using the boat as collateral. You'll likely have to use a home equity or some other collateral to get a decent rate.

12.5%.... banks nor insurance companies didnt want anything to do w/ a 23 year old, so I did what I had to @ the time to get the boat I wanted. Credit score is much better & a lot more established @ my job. Not to mention 3yrs older. I look @ it as always try to get the lowest payment possible, can always make extra payments. But always have to make the minimum payment, regardless of if something tragic/ or highly unexpected happens!!!

Have only owned my house about 8 months now & not really sure that a home equity is an option @ the moment...
