Write a business plan.
Detail:
Set up costs:
Down payment on boat and equipment. (You'll need to find this
yourself)
Revenue from business.
Sale of product: realistic maximum and minimum values, based on
the days spent at sea, stating previous experience of fishing, catch
size and market price
Other revenue streams, such as rental to tourists
Expenses of business:
Salary
Fuel
Service costs
Replacement of equipment
Insurance
Subtract one from the other to get surplus revenue, and use this to
calculate:
Loan repayment schedule, including suggested interest rate. Your
loan will be secured by the boat itself so don't use a rate for an
unsecured loan. Find out the going rate for a marine mortgage
and use that, or a midpoint of several.

Show this to a few bank managers. If they like the numbers you'll get your
money.
