Incentives to get into the Charter business

'There has been a significant boost to the benefits of investing in charter boats.' .
There are benefits and breaks available for small and general business to invest in new Charter Boats, thanks to the recent initiatives as part of the Government's stimulus package.

This tax break permits businesses to claim accelerated depreciation of 30% on top of normal depreciation on new assets purchased from 13 December 2008 until 30 June 2009. The assets purchased must be installed and ready for use by 30 June 2010. This supersedes the 10% accelerated tax break previously announced in November 2008.

Although we are yet to see the legislation, we can see no reason why this tax break should not apply to the purchase of new yachts for hire in the charter industry. A new boat will consequently generate an added tax advantage for your business in the first year of ownership - good for you, good for the economy.
