Is anyone aware of an offering similiar to LendingTree, for boats? 
I am buying a boat from a private owner so need to obtain financing for the purchase. 
Any recommendations?

Have you tried BoatUS?

I got an over the top Quote from boatUS for Insurance so
I did not think to go back to them for a Loan.

I think I might go with EssexCredit

Unless someone has other suggestions

These guys did me right in the fall of 2005.  Very easy to deal with.  http://www.scottboatloan.com/

Another option if you have owned your home long enough to have some equity is to use an equity loan.

One more option would be to sell your house and live on the boat!     :D
