8903.21.00.10 - With auxiliary motor

This HTS category, 8903.21.00.10, specifically classifies sailboats designed for pleasure or sports that are not inflatable and have a length not exceeding 7.5 meters. A key defining characteristic of this subcategory is the presence of an auxiliary motor, meaning these vessels are equipped with an engine for propulsion in addition to their sailing capabilities. This auxiliary motor can be used for maneuvering in harbors, for propulsion when there is insufficient wind, or for emergency backup.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, "Other:", it's important to note that this subcategory is for sailboats *other than inflatable* and *of a length not exceeding 7.5 meters*. The sibling category would encompass any other type of sailboat not meeting these specific length or inflatable criteria. Therefore, the primary differentiator lies in the combination of non-inflatable construction, length limitation, and the inclusion of an auxiliary motor.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification at this level is definitive based on the presence of an auxiliary motor and the physical characteristics defined by its parent categories: being a sailboat, not inflatable, and having a length not exceeding 7.5 meters. This ensures precise identification of these smaller, motorized sailboats for import and export purposes.
