If your talking about a new boat I don't think I'd worry about financing the electronics.

Your going to be financing and paying interest on a bunch of other stuff that's going to wear out or become obsolete like batteries, trailer tires, trolling motor, charger ect.

 Get what you really want and can afford. 

 

Financing aside, It's normally cheaper to buy electronics online than to pay full retail from the boat dealer.

In my case the dealer installed the additional units for free so it was about a wash. If you install them yourself no doubt you could save a few bucks by buying online.

• My 16' 1996 Grumman deep v with 50 hp evinrude cost $8800. Comparable 2017 rigs cost twice that. Sadly, my income hasn't doubled since 1996, so there is no new boat in my future...
