Learn About Boat Financing So You Can Finance the Boat of Your Dreams

By Charlie Johnson


Understanding what's involved in boat financing can help you get better loan
terms and a better boat for less money that you would have otherwise. Who
doesn't want to get more boat for less money?

Financing your boat purchase is a lot like financing your house or car purchase.
It's a huge financial committment and not one that should be taken lightly at all.

You'll want to use a lending company that has experience in financing boats so that
they can deliver quality service to you and help you get what you want for the money
you want to spend.

A knowledgeable lender will help you determine if the boat you are considering
purchasing is even worth the price being asked.

Just like you would for the boat itself you want to shop around and check out
various lenders that may be able to help you with your boat financing. You'll
find that all boat lenders are not created equal.

You want to get the best interest rates, loan terms and advice that's available.

Know yourself when you begin looking for boat financing. What do I mean by this?
I mean know your credit history, for starters. Knowing your credit history and
credit score will really help you get the best terms you can get. If you have
a great credit score, this is a big advantage in your favor when shopping for
the best terms on your boat financing.

Your current employment will also play a big role. The longer you've been at
your current job and the more stable that job is, the better financing you'll
be able to get for your boat.

More Info On used sailboats

Jet Ski is the brand name of personal watercraft (PWC) manufactured by Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd.. The name, however, has become a genericized trademark for any type of personal watercraft. Jet Ski (or JetSki, often shortened to "Ski"[1]) can also specifically refer to versions of PWCs with pivoting handlepoles known as "stand-ups".

Size of the jet ski is important. There are jet skis that accommodate one person, two people or four people. The four-person model is a relatively new and quite popular model, so this may be hard to obtain used.

If the Jetsons owned a yacht, it would probably look a lot like the Maltese Falcon. The prized possession of Silicon Valley venture capitalist Tom Perkins, the Maltese Falcon is like a sailing computer, equipped with fiber-optic networks, microprocessors and touch screens that have converted the brain and muscle of sailing into a computerized control panel. Now, the only manpower required to hoist and lower its 26,000 square feet of sails is a touch of a button. Likewise, the football-field-sized yacht completed in spring of 2006 is the most expensive and technologically advanced of its kind today. With a price tag hovering around $130 million, the Maltese Falcon navigates more like a video game than a 1,367-ton boat. But Perkins isn't stopping there. He's working on a sports submarine to house on the Maltese Falcon in case he ever wants to play with some whales or manatees deep in the ocean. Think of it as his version of a jet ski.
