How we work to get you a high deduction:
Market experts
Experienced agents evaluate each boat to determine its value and how much we can expect to sell it for.
Get the highest sale price
Depending on the local market, we’ll either sell the boat at auction, to a dealer or a local yard.
Negotiate highest price
We don’t settle for the first price we’re offered. We keep the boat on the market until we’re satisfied we’re getting the highest sale price.
It’s not hard to claim the tax deduction for your boat donation. Here’s what you have to know.
