About This Finance

Boat Trailer

Boat trailer finance covers everything from a single-axle trailer for a tinny to a multi-axle rig for a large trailer boat or a commercial vessel. Most buyers are recreational, but charter operators, fishing businesses and marine dealers finance trailers too.

Most boat trailers are bought with the boat, and lenders usually finance the package as a single marine loan. If you're only replacing the trailer, the amount can be small, and some lenders have minimum loan sizes. In that case a smaller secured or personal loan may suit better. Lenders like galvanised or aluminium trailers from known builders, as they hold value in a salty environment.

Tip: check the trailer's ATM is rated for the boat, motor, fuel and gear combined, and that your tow vehicle can handle it. A trailer that's under-rated for the boat is a safety problem and can complicate finance and insurance.
