FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
the application process
What kind of documentation will I need to fill out the application?
You may need to refer to documents such as mortgage and credit card statements, tax returns and bank account records when filling out your application. View a list of reference information you may need.
Keep in mind that you will need to know the exact make and model of your new boats for the application.
I've changed my mind about which boat I want to purchase. What should I do?
You can communicate any changes to the make and model you plan to purchase by contacting Bluewater Finance.
What happens after I submit my application?

After I’ve submitted my application, can I make changes?
No, you cannot modify your application after it's been submitted. However, you can contact a Bluewater Finance representative to make changes to your application.
Does the loan application change if I want to refinance?
No, you will complete the same application as other loan applicants, though some sections of the application will be slightly different for you.
At the beginning of the application you will be asked if you plan to purchase a vessel from an individual or dealer, of if you plan to refinance. When answering the questions about your "new" boat, you should enter in information about the boat for which you currently carry the loan you plan to refinance.
What are the terms for loans?
Any loan amount, on approved credit, can be amortized up to 20 years.
What is the requirement for down payment?
For certain loan applications, it is possible to complete a purchase of your used boat with zero down payment. Down payment requirements vary by lender and region, but some lenders may require a 10% down payment of the total purchase. Purchases over $100,000 will typically require 20-30% of a down payment.
