Q: Why would I finance if I have the money to buy it for cash?
A: Many people feel that cash is the better option, however, there are so many more benefits when financing. Most importantly a boat is a depreciating asset, therefore; as with all depreciating assets, the basics of economic principle will apply.


Q: How quickly can a Boat Loan APR change?
A: Interest rates on boat loans are directly affected by the cost of federal funds and Libor. Interest rates are set by the lending institution, not by Elite Financial International.
