Why Buy a Boat? Here are the TOP 5 reasons to buy a boat!
The cost considerations of a boat purchase can be overwhelming, but buying a boat is well worth the investment. Here are the TOP 5 reasons why that is.
Sheer enjoyment: Boating is just plain fun, and it’s easy to learn. If boating is something that brings you joy, that alone will make it worth the expense. Your hobbies and interests are worth investing in, and this investment is something that will serve you (and those you love) well for many years. With a boat, summer becomes extra exciting!
A sense of community: When you make the investment, you become part of a diverse community made up of people from all backgrounds who bond together over their common love of boating. This community supports its members by trading tips and tricks and holding social events together. People within the boating community understand how powerful the sport is in bringing people together. Boating — especially when wakeboarding and doing similar activities — involves teamwork, trust, and communication. As you participate in these events with friends and family, you’ll find yourselves with stronger relationships at the end.
Stress management: Modern life is full of stressors. Many people juggle a demanding job, a family, church and community responsibilities, and more. Boating is a healthy and fun way to alleviate that stress and improve your quality of life. If you bring a wakeboard and plan to swim, it’s great exercise, too. (Those who ride the wake know how much of a leg workout it is to stay upright!)
Universal opportunity: Approximately 90% of Americans live less than an hour away from a body of water suitable for boating. This close proximity allows you to get maximum use from your investment. You’ll never be bored on the weekends when you can pack up and go boating just an hour from home!
Tax advantages: Did you know that in 2018, US tax law was changed to allow business entities to completely write off boats purchased for business purposes? You can even write off the money you spend upgrading or improving the boat for up to a year after you’ve made the purchase. This purchase would allow you to offer more unique opportunities than lunch appointments or golf trips. A boating trip is sure to be something your clients will always remember!
