Frequently Asked Questions
What documents do I need for boat finance?
The documents required can vary depending on the lender, your circumstances and the type of boat you are purchasing. You may need identification, proof of income, details of your current financial commitments and information about the boat. Your finance specialist can explain what is required for your application.
Can I get boat finance if I am self-employed?
Yes, self-employed applicants may have access to a range of boat finance options, subject to lender criteria and their individual circumstances. Different lenders may have different documentation and income verification requirements. CompareFin can help you understand the options available based on your situation.
Can I get finance for a new or used boat?
Boat finance may be available for both new and used boats, depending on the lender, boat type, age, value and other eligibility requirements. Your finance specialist can help you explore suitable options for the boat you are looking to purchase.
How much can I borrow for a boat?
The amount you may be able to borrow depends on factors such as your income, financial commitments, credit profile, deposit and the boat you are purchasing. Your borrowing capacity should be assessed based on your individual circumstances.
Can I calculate my boat loan repayments before applying?
Yes. You can use our loan calculator to estimate your repayments based on the amount borrowed, interest rate and loan term. The result is an estimate only and actual repayments may vary depending on the lender, fees and loan structure.
Can I finance a boat with a deposit?
A deposit may be used when purchasing a boat and can reduce the amount you need to finance. Whether a deposit is required, and how much you contribute, can depend on the lender, purchase price and your financial circumstances.
Can I finance different types of boats?
Finance options can vary depending on the type, age and value of the boat. Depending on lender criteria, options may be available for recreational boats, yachts, fishing boats, cruisers and other marine vessels. Speak with CompareFin about your specific purchase to understand the options that may be available.
Will applying for boat finance affect my credit score?
Whether your credit file is affected depends on the type of enquiry and the lender's application process. Before proceeding, your finance specialist can explain what is involved and what information may be required as part of the application.
How long does boat finance approval take?
Approval times can vary depending on the lender, your application, the documents required and the complexity of your circumstances. Providing accurate information and the required documentation can help keep the process moving.
