Tax Deductions: Section 179 & Bonus Depreciation

Thinking about using a yacht for your business and want to know about tax breaks? Section 179 lets you deduct part of the cost upfront, but only if the yacht is truly for business (To qualify you must prove Active Participation and Ability & Intent to make a profit) and there are spending limits. Bonus depreciation offers even bigger deductions. Remember, the IRS is strict, so consult a tax pro specializing in yacht businesses.
