With a Secured Loans the lender uses the watercraft as security against the loan. With this type of finance, most lenders will require the borrower take out a comprehensive insurance policy. The level of coverage required may vary from lender to lender.
Your Jade consultant will advise you of the scope of the insurance policy required when assisting with your credit application. Comprehensive insurance policies are available from a number of insurers including Club Marine that specialises in marine insurance.
With an Unsecured Personal Financing for a watercarft, the vessel is not offered/taken as security against the loan. Therefore, insurance would not be mandatory for an unsecured finance.
Business or commercial marine finance are available when the watercraft being purchased is used primarily for the purposes of a business or in a business operation. Proof of the use of the watercraft in the business will be requested.
To be eligible for commercial finance, you must have a current ABN, be operating an ongoing business concern and provide the business financial documentation as requested by the lenders. This may include BAS statements, business accounts, annual business income tax return and other financial information.
If a business does not have all the documentation as requested by a lender, Jade can seek a quote for a Low Docs or No Docs Boat loans for the business.
Simply holding an ABN does not automatically make an individual eligible for commercial marine finance.
In most cases there are loans for power and sailboats, small and large sized vessels, recreational and commercial marine vessels, jet skis, speed, ski, houseboats and many more. While some banks may not offer financing for all types of watercrafts, there are a wide range of non-bank lenders that do offer loans on most types of marine vessels. Loans are available for both new and used watercraft. If the age and condition of an older vessels does not meet the criteria for a secured loan, there maybe a unsecured personal loan that might be suitable.
In many cases, applicants can borrow 100% of the purchase price of the watercraft. This is subject to individual applications and individual lenders. If an application as assessed as the applicant not being in a position to service a loan of that size, it may be requested that you pay a higher deposit to reduce the loan amount.
There is no general rule on the maximum allowed on boat loans. All finance quotes and credit conditions are offered subject to individual applications and individual lenders. Some banks may have limits on the maximum amount they will extend on personal boat loans. Jade is accredited with many lenders so we have access to more options beyond the major banks.
Individual lenders will take into account the type of watercraft when assessing credit. While as a general guideline, the same interest rate may apply to both power and yacht loans, smaller sailing boats are more usually more suited to an Unsecured Personal Loan.
This type of finance in most cases can have up to a maximum loan of $50k and additional property may be requested as security depending on individual lender requirements. Please refer to our Unsecured Loans webpage for complete details or contact us to discuss options for your particular vessel.
Marine loans are primarily assessed on the applicant’s details and financial situation. The engine capacity of a power vessel does not affect the general details of a credit application. Both high-powered boats and small outboard boats attract the same financing rates and lending conditions.
Yes. If purchasing a trailer watercraft is normal to include the entire boat and trailer package in your loan. Some sellers will sell boats as a complete package while others will be sold separately. You may also choose to purchase the watercraft and trailer separately or upgrade to a better trailer than the one being offered. In both cases, the watercraft and trailer can be included in the same credit application.
No. A watercraft loan is quoted and offered on the value of the vessel or the loan amount being requested and aspects of the loan application.
Where you are going to use your watercraft does not affect the interest rate or other aspects of the loan. We provide loans for both inshore and off shore boats including boats that are only used on rivers and lakes and for open water boats.
Where you use and store your boat may affect your marine comprehensive insurance but these are questions you will be asked when requesting a insurance policy.
