WEBINAR OVERVIEW:

Join SeaKeepers in a high-level introduction to the Yacht Donation Program with Steve Rizzone and Dick Seidenspinner from The International SeaKeepers Society and guest speakers soon to be announced. The discussion will include real cases where boats have lingered for long periods of time, are difficult to sell, or where the owner has a tax liability that may benefit from a donation to offset short-term income. The webinar will cover topics that will allow you to understand:

  • · The yacht donation process and the benefits donors, end-users and brokers experience along the way.
  • · How donations go toward scientific expeditions, citizen science, educational outreach events, and community engagement.
  • · The importance of yacht appraisals, the steps to take and market versus replacement value.
  • · Tax, domestic and international considerations to take when partaking in yacht donations.
