Each potential donation receives a thorough assessment by our dedicated yacht donation facilitators.
When agree to evaluate a potential contribution, the donation process is the following:
Appraisal:
A qualified appraiser selected by you will determine the yacht value. We get you FMV (Fair Market Value) which determines your yachts value per rules of the Internal Revenue Service.
Ask our trusted teams about obtaining an appraisal for donation.
Survey
We obtain a survey of the yacht for determining the best detuctible from our program.
There are two general avenues for yacht donations:
Use of vessel in our missions (Recommended)
Maximum Deductible
3 years of carryover for deductibility
5 Years of carryover for deductibility
Outright Sale (Not Recommended)
Minimum Deductible
Takes away from your as Tax Incentive.
No multiple year deduction.
Possible lost deduction because vessel still in repair or refit.
Caution to donors
Beware of organizations- Who say won't certify that improvements will be made to a vessel you donated, by law they have to show these improvements to the IRS. You have the right to know, it will affect your deductible.
- That don't give you proper credit for exactly what you are donating.
- That are directly affiliated with brokers or brokerages because the IRS has a very strict rules about sales or leasing donated vessels.
- That may not be Tax exempt and check the type of 501c3 working or non working. This significantly affects your Tax incentive.
- That avoid or refuse to give a copy of their IRS determination letter upon you asking. It's the Law!
Closing
- Once we accept the contribution, we will assist with documents and complete the necessary paperwork.
How can yacht donors claim a tax benefit?
ARC will issue a donation acceptance receipt/letter, and IRS Forms 8283 and 1098-C. Potential or interested donors should consult with their financial and tax advisors to determine if yacht donation is the right alternative for their individual situation and to understand the particularities of their contribution. Remember you as donor will need to file an itemized return.

Please be Advised
Filling out ARC donation application form, does not automatically mean you have donated your vessel. If you tell any law enforcement that you donated your boat to ARC (Angel Rescue Corporation) and do not have an Donation Acceptance Letter, you may be committing a crime and could be charged by the agency. Marine Patrol will call ARC to verify.
Marine Patrol anywhere has access and does get freedom of information. Please don't attempt to donate any sunken or derilick vessels to ARC because they cannot be donated.
If you have a sunken, non running, or vessel with no title you need to request a salvage and disposal quote not donate it.

WARNING! READ BELOW
Donors / Owners are responsible for vessels until ARC accepts your donation. We work close with marine patrol statewide and if your vessel does not have this acceptance letter you may or could receive a ticket from law enforcement. ARC does not take possession of any vessel not running or if paperwork is not properly filled out. Vessels that are supposed to be demolished, destroyed, dismantled or recycled are considered salvage not donations and vessel owner is responsible for salvage cost as quoted as well as towing of the vessel. Salvage vessels cannot be donated for any reason. There are no refunds for failing to pay towing your salvage vessel even if you have a planned salvage. ARC will report vessels without HIN stamped or attached to the hull. It is unlawful for any vessel not to be registered in the state of Florida therefore an HIN must be attached to the hull to get a vessel registration.
