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/
I'm happy with Key Bank. www.keybank.com (http://www.keybank.com)
Another option if you have owned your home long enough to have some equity is to use an equity loan.
I used Key Bank as well. No problems...good rate at the time.
One more option would be to sell your house and live on the boat! :D

The Equity line we have is Variable rate.... although the rate appear to be going down again
