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 On ericson sailboat
Today, the most common sailboat is the sloop which features one mast and two sails, a normal mainsail and a foresail. This simple configuration is very efficient for sailing towards the wind. The mainsail is attached to the mast and the boom, which is a spar capable of swinging across the boat, depending on the direction of the wind. Depending on the size and design of the foresail it can be called a jib, genoa, or spinnaker; it is possible but not common for a sloop to carry two foresails from the one forestay at one time (wing on wing). The forestay is a line or cable running from near the top of the mast to a point near the bow. In Bermuda, where a rig design influenced by the Lateen rig appeared on boats and came to be known as the Bermuda rig, a large spinnaker was carried on a spinnaker boom when running down-wind. An example of a typical sloop can be seen on the Islander 36.
