Just want a nice boat that can seat my wife (soon to be daughter) & a few friends.

I had to read that a couple times... I'm guessing you're missing an apostrophe or two. The way it is written, I'm thinking you married your daughter, and will soon be divorcing her! LOL I looked and your profile doesn't say Tennessee, so I'm guessing that you just forgot some punctuation. Those apostrophes can be quite important!

You mean 'commas', don't you?

Invite CIs for on the boat training sessions and it's definitely a tax write-off as a classroom. :-)

He could also hold remedial English classes on the boat and teach Bcf the difference between commas and apostrophes. Even people in Tennessee know the difference.

They look the same, though. Just not in the same place.

My favorite day of the year is when the boat goes into the water and worst day is when I take it out.

I'm with you Rhea,

I got a great deal on a bank repo wellcraft 20' when I was young and free. I spent more money taking care of it than I paid for it every year.

And why are you hating on Tennessee? The best news stories I see around here come from rural Pennsylvania, which I refer to as Pennsyltucky.

As far as the deduction, you can deduct anything, it is the audit where it gets tricky, what they will allow. If you deduct a boat, you better be able to prove without a doubt that it is strictly business use.

For instance, you install on boats and use it as an installation vehicle, (I've seen marine mechanics do this). If its sole purpose is to demo marine electronics it might fly, if you only use it for entertaining builders, maybe.

You may be better off just buying it personally, but have the business pay for the fuel and upkeep, easier to make a case for.

Then again ask your accountant, he /she's the one going in front of the IRS with you.
Hey, careful man, there's a beverage here!
