Personal Finance
Boat & marine loans that won't sink your budget.
Weekends are better on the water — one application, 67+ lenders, and finance for the tinny, the cruiser or the jet ski.
Make it happen on the water.
Whether it's a tinny for the fishing trips or a cruiser for family weekends, the right boat turns an idea into a lifestyle. X Lend is a finance broker: we take one application and compare it across 67+ banks and non-bank lenders so you can get on the water without the financial headache.
New or used, dealer or private sale, we arrange finance around the vessel you want — from jet skis and trailer boats to bigger cabin cruisers and yachts. Get pre-approved first and you can buy with confidence, knowing exactly what you can spend.
We shop the whole panel so you're not boxed in by one bank's policy, explain the numbers in plain English, and only lodge once you give the nod. A quote never touches your credit file, so you can plan the purchase without a mark on your record.

Common questions, straight answers.
We're a finance broker. We compare 67+ banks and non-bank lenders and place your boat loan with the one offering the best fit and rate.
Yes. Many of our lenders fund used vessels and private sales. We verify the boat and that it's clear of existing finance, then settle with the seller.
Usually, yes. Trailer boats are commonly financed as a package — boat, motor and trailer together — and we'll structure it to suit.
No. An indicative quote doesn't touch your credit file. We only run a formal credit check once you're ready to proceed with a lender.
It depends on the vessel and your situation, but our panel covers everything from a modest tinny to a sizeable cruiser. We'll tell you your realistic borrowing power upfront.
