August 1, 1987, Sterling Acceptance Corporation opened its doors for the very first time! Throughout the last 30-years, Sterling Acceptance has financed countless yachts, boats and RVs.
As Sterling Acceptance has evolved through thirty wonderful years, we have grown from Shady Oaks Marina in West River, Maryland, to Oak Grove Marine Center in Edgewater, Maryland, and now are established on the corner of Rowe Boulevard and Melvin Avenue in the beautiful Annapolis, Maryland.
In addition to our physical growth, Sterling Acceptance has grown from originating yacht and boat loans, to producing RV loans and now has expanded into AIRCRAFT LOANS.
We thank each and every one of you for being our customers and loyal colleagues, and look forward to the next 30 years of business!
From Your Friends at Sterling Acceptance Corporation

Message From The President
"Sterling Acceptance was created by the love of family, strength of marine loans, and support from the lending community. We are proud to be the longest serving independently owned recreational loan company.
Over the years we have expanded to remote offices all over the country and are excited to announce this growth will also expand into aircraft loans! This is a large development for us and we are excited to tackle this section of recreational loans.
Sterling Acceptance's 30-year success could not have been possible without the relationships built with the lenders, brokers, and customers. I want to personally thank all of you for your support, repeat business and referrals over the years. I speak for everyone at Sterling Acceptance to say that we look forward to continuing these valuable relationships through the next 30-years."
Best always,
Karen Trostle
