When considering a loan and loan terms, lenders will take into account the boat’s age, its condition, any servicing requirements, and its servicing history before offering finance.

A brand new boat will generally come with a lower interest rate than a second hand boat. However, we understand that shopping the used market allows our customers more freedom to find the boat of their dreams – which is why our brokers will always work to find the best loan to suit the needs of every customer and their wishes.
