Yacht Brokers: Have you considered having your client donate a listed vessel rather than selling it?
Donating rather than selling may be a better option for both the yacht broker and the client.
Are you aware that yacht broker referral commissions paid by Action Donation Services® in most cases are equal to or greater than broker sales commissions?
Learn more about the Action Donation Services Broker Compensation Plan® This plan is a “win-win” for both the broker and the owner!
Often the owner of a listed yacht becomes impatient with the time it takes to sell the average yacht. Research shows the average yacht can sometimes take as long as two years to sell. In the meantime, the owner continues to incur the considerable holding expenses of docking, maintenance, insurance, depreciation, etc.
Using the Action Donation Services® methods which comply with all IRS requirements, they can donate to a favorite charity and enjoy an immediate tax deduction based on the full survey value of the vessel—depending on the program selected.
We will compensate Yacht Brokers who refer a yacht owner to us – providing we determine that the donation is acceptable for processing for a qualified and relevant charity – and the donor agrees to donate the vessel to an agreed upon charity.

Allow us to show you how easy this is:
In business since 2002, Action Donation Services® specializes in processing yacht donations for some of America’s finest charities. Action Donation’s unique ability to properly and safely facilitate yacht donations is resulting in ever increasing demand for our services from yacht and high value vessel owners. Many of whom have been referred to us by satisfied previous donors and/or brokers!
The process for yacht brokers is very simple, fast and financially rewarding.
First step is for the broker to contact us and discuss a potential yacht donation where the broker has suggested the “donation option” to the owner. Often the broker will suggest the owner visit our web page to see who we are – and to become acquainted with our unique services.
Second, an expert yacht donation professional will discuss with the potential donor, the details of the vessel. If the vessel is acceptable, and the owner agrees to have Action facilitate the donation – the donor will be immediately relieved of the burden of ownership. Once we take possession of the vessel, we assume 100% of the liability and costs. And in most cases the donor can immediately claim a tax deduction based on the full survey value of the donation.
Your client will thank you for suggesting the “donation option”.
Donating saves the owner all the costs and challenges associated with selling a vessel, not to mention the liability and depreciation. The owner will now no longer be responsible for the holding costs while the vessel is being listed and allows the owner to immediately claim the tax savings. All this equals a happy client who will thank you for telling him or her about the “donation option”.
Donating is clearly a great choice. Additionally, the owner will also have the personal satisfaction of the humanitarian rewards associated with donating to one of our many qualified and worthy charities.
And finally, the broker will be compensated for referring the client to Action Donation Services®. The yacht broker compensation will be the same as, or greater than, it would have been had he or she sold the vessel.

“Depending on the facts and circumstances, vessel donations can be a very attractive alternative to an outright sale (which, depending on the yacht, could take a measurable amount of time), and we commend the brokers presenting this option to their clients.
