Boat Financing-Take the Helm

By Julie Jacobs

Do you need boat financing for a new boat or a pre-owned boat? No matter if you want a yacht or a speed boat there are plenty of choices available for you. First time boat buyers may be curious about the whole boat financing process. If you have bought a boat in the past, financing options may have changed since you made that first boat purchase. The boat financing process is now easier than it ever was in the past�especially with the internet options. There are tools resources and products that will help you along the way.

A boat loan calculator that you can commonly find on boat lending sites is a great way to get started. You can estimate your monthly payment within just a few seconds. If you know about how much you will need for your boat financing, you enter the total in the loan amount area. Then, you enter the length of financing. The current interest rates should be provided. You can continue to change the numbers until you get a good match for your budget.

After you have used the boat loan calculator, you should look around the boat financing site. The better sites have links to boat manufacturers and dealers as well as more information about financing to help you get the best loan. They should also have contact information about who you can talk to in order to get more information about boat financing.

The length of financing for a boat can range anywhere from 5 to 10 years to 25 to 30 years. The length will largely depend on the overall cost of the boat, your credit rating, the interest rate and the amount of down payment you are required to pay.

Getting pre-approval for your boat loan is a great step in the right direction. It only takes a little while to fill out and submit an online application and you will have an answer in as little as 24 hours. Then you can get right on to the fun part-shopping for your boat. Financing a boat is easier than ever. You can do it.

Hints About bombardier jet boat

Luxury sailing yachts generally 82 ft or longer, in recent years, these yachts have evolved from fairly simple vessels with basic accommodation into sophisticated and luxurious boats. This is largely due to reduced hull-building costs brought about by the introduction of fibreglass hulls, and increased automation and "production line" techniques for yacht building, especially in Europe.

If you want to run shallow rivers, you need a jet boat. Jet boats come in different types and sizes, but they all have one thing in common � they depend on a high-pressure column of water pushed out of the engine to propel the boat. They can run in less water depth because there is no prop and lower unit hanging down to snag the river bottom. With the right boat, a highly skilled driver, and a consistent bottom, you can run in as little as two-to-three inches of water.

A Quality Boat That You Can Take With You On Your Next Fishing Trip

By Trevor Kugler

Having a boat to fish from really gives the angler an advantage. There are so many more area's to access from a boat as opposed from walking along the bank. If you've never considered a quality inflatable boat for your fishing needs, you may want to. A quality inflatable is amazingly easy set up and also quite affordable. A quality inflatable boat may be something worth keeping in mind.

Many fishermen fish from shore because they don't have a boat. Let's face it, boats are expensive. Who's got thousands of extra dollars to spend on a boat? Many of us don't have that kind of extra money, but now there are affordable and convenient alternatives. It may sound crazy, but you may want to give a quality inflatable boat a shot. There are many advantages to owning a quality inflatable boat, and some of those advantages would include :


- Access to otherwise unaccesable water - Easy assembly - Lightweight - Stable

Having a boat that you can take with you anywhere does have it's advantages. If you like to camp or have a RV, how nice and easy would it be to take a boat with you, if that boat were inflatable? When you have to trailer and tow your boat, it can become more of a pain in the butt to take it. An inflatable would be easy to take with you. Just throw it in your car or RV and if you want to use it, great, if you don't, no problem, just leave it in its bag. A quality boat, that you can take with you on your next fishing trip may be something worth considering.

Inflatable tenders are much easier to store than conventional dinghies. When deflated and folded into its carry bag a typical 8 foot inflatable measures about 3 feet x 2 feet and weighs about 80 lbs. At this size, you can see that an inflatable tender is easily stowed in a locker on board, below decks or in a closet or shed at home. They're also very convenient to take on picnics or on vacation, even in a small car.


A catboat has a single mast mounted fairly forward and does not carry a head sail (jib etc.). Most modern designs have only one sail, the mainsail; however the traditional catboat could carry multiple sails from the gaff rig. The designer of the Catboat is Brian Husband, master sailor of the early 1940's.
