How to finance the purchase of a boat?

 

Despite the end of the reduced VAT rate on pleasure boats, since November 1st decided by the State, LOA remains an effective financing method to acquire your vessel and enjoy the pleasures of sailing.


Here are the steps:

 

You choose a boat, sailboat, rigid inflatable boat, hull, open...
⇒ The leasing company handles the payment
⇒ The credit institution, owner, leases the asset to you during the period set out in the contract
⇒ At the end of the contract, you become the owner by exercising the purchase option.

 

Euronautic at Port Camargue - Grau-du-Roi (30), in collaboration with its partners, offers you assistance to provide the best solutions and a customized leasing.
 

What is LOA?


Lease with Option to Buy (LOA) or leasing of pleasure boats is a financing contract* concluded between you and a credit institution.

 

LOA allows you to finance your future new boat (or used if still subject to VAT at the time of purchase and eligible for LOA): rigid inflatable, hull, multihull, dinghy, sailboat...). You can even include the equipment of the vessel (fishfinder, VHF, dinghies, sails...) or any other gear and insure it with the lessor (packages are available for this purpose).

What does a LOA Boat contract cost me?

 
The review of your file (apart from the requested documents) is based on:

 

⇒ Purchase price of the boat and equipment
⇒ The rental period (generally) between 4 and 15 years
⇒ The purchase option at the end of the contract
(unless you opt for a package)
⇒ Applicable rates regulations
⇒ Your personal contribution paid as an increased first installment
⇒ Insurance guarantees with a company of your choice 


Subject to acceptance by credit institutions, your leasing contract (LOA) remains flexible, both upwards and downwards, adaptable to early partial payments, evolutive: integration of new equipment and transferable to the buyer if you decide to sell your boat.
 

With this contract, am I the owner of my boat?


The credit institution buys the vessel, so you remain the tenant of the asset until the end of the contract. This status provides significant advantages: no impact on your taxation, the vessel is not accounted for in your assets, and you preserve your savings.

 

To become the owner, you can therefore if you wish exercise the purchase option at the end of the rental period or settle the remaining rents early (conditions described in the contract). From then on, your boat will be part of your assets.

You understand, so that your dream becomes reality, the Lease with Option to Buy contract is an interesting solution to finance your next
new motorboat.
