The CU I worked with was a half % better (4.49) than yamaha/synchrony (4.99) in late 2018 and they appear to be even better on top tier now!

Can you please provide contact info for the financial company Ames?
 
Thank you !!
 
I can't believe you had the nerve to ask a financing related question. Haven't you read any other threads? Only morons obtain loans to buy anything.

I think you can beat 5% for 120 months if you shop around. You may need to go in and talk to a credit union face to face as I am not certain they always publish their best rate, but if you ask them to beat the advertised synchrony rate someone will get you into the 4% range.

But Dave Ramsey would not approve.
 
problem with most cu is they limit to either 6 or 7 years. when i got mine for my boat they were running a special 5 year at 3.4%

So I've read around here, lol. Maybe that's why the forum was "upgraded/enhanced" and there's no more thumbs down? Ha.

Far as non-mortgage/home loans go... if I croaked tomorrow, i figure my fam can have the liquid cash in the accounts and the bank can have the boat. :)

Those are some great Rates. I had 4.75% on my boat for 180 months that I purchased in 2016. Rates have gone up some so most banks and credit unions are higher now.
 
Yet another reason I don’t want to upgrade boats right now. I got 2.99% with Yamaha/Syncrony back in the fall of 2015.
 
Best rates going right now are for A+ credit rating (750+) through the US Bank Marine Indirect Program, ask your dealer if they are part of the program and see what they can get you. I you can put substantial money down you can get to the mid 4s on rate.
