About Us

Whenever a large commercial vessel approaches a new port, the call goes out for the pilot to come aboard and safely guide the ship into harbor: past the shoals, through the strange tides, and into the safe channels that lead to the desired destination.

Sterling Associates has been piloting boat buyers into the safe waters of sound boat financing for more than 29 years. In that time, we have successfully closed more than $5 billion in boat loans.

Our success as financing navigators has been built one boat owner at a time. We offer rapid and responsive customer service, unmatched expertise, solid relationships with lenders and the boating industry, and the promise that we will do everything we can to ensure you arrange the best possible boat loan at the best possible terms.

If you are facing this important decision–how to purchase the boat of your dreams–we urge you to give us a call. We are specialists in recreational boat financing (as well as financing for RVs, private aircraft and manufactured homes) and as experienced, savvy pilots, we will bring your ship safely to port.
