8903.31.00.25 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, 8903.31.00.25, encompasses "Other" motorboats, specifically those that are not inflatable and do not include outboard motors. Crucially, these vessels are defined by their length, not exceeding 7.5 meters. This classification focuses on the physical dimensions and propulsion method of pleasure craft designed for sport or leisure activities.

The distinguishing feature of this category lies in its exclusion of outboard motorboats, which are classified separately. Furthermore, while sibling categories at this level might focus on different drive systems (e.g., inboard/outdrive), this subcategory is distinguished by its specific length limitation. The intent is to capture smaller, self-propelled motorboats that fall within the specified size constraint.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subdivisions. Therefore, classification into this category depends on a definitive assessment of the vessel's length being 7.5 meters or less, and the absence of an outboard motor as its primary propulsion. Any motorboat meeting these criteria, and not fitting into more specific classifications for inflatable vessels or those with outboard motors, would be appropriately classified here.
