BUY A BOAT FOR CHARTER 

 
Are you dreaming of buying a boat?
  It just might be a great financial decision for you. 
  • The IRS allows large deductions (up to $108,000 or more)
  • Blue Pacific turns dreams into reality and businesses by being your "maintenance crew!"

 SAVINGS 

The tax law (
IRS Section 179 of the Jobs & Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003) was passed in 2003 to stimulate the economy, and the maximum deduction has grown every year since.
Please also review this link to
Leases of Mobile Transportation Equipment - Regulation 1661.

So ... its time to buy a boat for charter. The law allows you to deduct up to $108,000 of your charter yacht when you purchase it for business, which happens when you put it into Blue Pacific's Yacht Management Program.  Then you can use income tax savings and charter income to help pay for your dream. 

Contact your accountant or tax planner to discuss the details or let us refer you to one of our specialists.  We work with CPAs who are already up-to-speed on the details of this great opportunity. 
  
 BLUE PACIFIC, YOUR BUILT-in MAINTENANCE CREW  

Yacht manufacturers and brokers do not offer a "maintenance crew" as an option, but Blue Pacific does!  

Owning a yacht in the Blue Pacific Yacht Management Program gives you the best of everything.  You can enjoy using your yacht at your discretion while we take care of it and help you make money. 

Our maintenance crew gives constant attention to your boat, keeping her constantly clean and ready for you to step aboard and take off sailing without having to worry about a thing.   We will perform regular engine service and keep records of everything we do for your boat in a monthly statement. 

Your boat will only be sailed by qualified Blue Pacific sailors, most of whom we have trained ourselves, and who will treat your investment as well as if you were aboard. 
 

  HERE IS MORE ON ... 
 BUYING A BOAT FOR CHARTER THROUGH
 BLUE PACIFIC BOATING

WHY BUY ...
BOAT PURCHASE TIME: No sales tax on purchase.  Instead. we can collect the sales tax on the charters for you. 

MONTHLY:  Receive a check for 60% of the charter fees.  This represents substantial income, as our more popular boats go out over 100 days per year. 

INCOME TAX TIME:  Depreciate the boat and deduct the boat expenses. We write the contract as an active investment.  In addition, Section 179 may allow you to depreciate up to $111,000 the first year. 

MAINTENANCE: We will be your maintenance crew.  Our knowledgeable and judicious maintenance team will help you keep your boat in A-1 condition at minimum cost for maximum income, personal enjoyment and resale value.


HOW OUR CHARTER PROGRAM WORKS ... 

INSURANCE: Our group policy will provide your boat with $1,000,000 liability and hull value insurance with 1% deductible. You are financially responsible for the insurance cost (current example: per year around $1,800 for a $110,000 boat, to $5,700 for a $438,000 boat). Contact Pam Stanley at Global Marine Insurance at 1-800-748-0224 or by email at service@globalmarineinsurance.com

SLIP ARRANGEMENTS: We will help you secure a slip at a competitive rate at the MARINERS BAY marina in Marina del Rey. You will be responsible for the slip fees (currently $15.00 to $18.00 per ft on a month-to-month rental agreement). 

BOAT EQUIPMENT: We will provide you with a list of required and/or recommended equipment for a successful Charter Boat. Most of these you would want to have yourself: refrigeration, a hard-bottom dinghy and outboard motor, and galley equipment for 6 to 10 depending on boat size. (click here to see more items)

MAINTENANCE: You will enjoy the best maintenance at reduced costs thanks to our group purchasing power. You are financially responsible for on-going maintenance. Charterers of course pay for any damage, loss or breakage they cause to the boat or its equipment.   (pro-forma available on request)
