Tax time... can I write the boat off?
Well, I'm trying to get all my stuff in order for the accountant and I'm wondering what it takes to write the boat off? I have a pump-out porta potty (bathroom), a sink and a propane magna grill (kitchen) and a v-berth (bedroom). Am I covered?
Thanks,
Wiz

Wiz,
You're in fine shape. There was a thread on here not too long ago about this topic. Do a search and you should be able to find it. Based on your explanation, it sounds like you'll be able to write off your interest paid for your boat

As long as you sleep, eat(cook) and sh!t on it for a few days you're good to go. Nice having a second home that makes noise isnt it

I think you have to stay in it 30 days a year and it counts as a second home. I live on the water and I sleep (pass out 
) in my boat that much, we have wrote off ours every year.
