  • Yacht broker Gary Fretz outlines the big sailboat loan process. We break down the costs and qualifications for a $250,000 sailing yacht. He says you should only deal with marine lenders and lists the ones that write loans on non-US documented vessels and vessels outside the USA. You need a 680+ FICO credit score, at least 20% down, and less than a 35% debt-to-income ratio. Gary Fretz mostly helps buyers looking for big sailing catamarans that are 5 years or less old. For a $250,000 boat you can expect a $900-$1000 monthly payment based on 20% down and fixed interest rates of 3.75 and 5.0 percent. The number of lenders and terms of boat loans for smaller and older boats are generally worse. He also talks about some of the tax and registration issues with foreign boats. He argues Caribbean sailing catamarans are typically 10-15% less expensive than US-based boats. It costs about $2.50 per mile to have a boat delivered.
    We break out the secrets to getting the best sailing catamaran for a great price and maximizing your resale value. Many top vloggers such as Sailing La Vagabonde and Sailing Zatara are selling their monohulls to buy a catamar Gary Fretz has been a yacht broker for 30 years. He helped Jessica and Ryan Adventures buy their sailing catamaran and he can help you too. Once you live aboard space becomes so important and cats have more space! Seasonal and Regional Factors are crucial in price you pay for a cat. Gary Fretz gives a way all his secrets if you e-mail him at

    Or then again, you could buy a boat you can afford. Part of cruising to me is freedom- Who wants to sail with a hefty mortgage due? No thanks. I will sail what I can afford to own outright.

    Navy Federal will do no more than a 15 year loan. Interest rates start at about 5% for excellent credit (as of August 2019)
