Overview
This HTS classification covers motorboats, excluding inflatable types and those powered by outboard motors, which have a hull length greater than 7.5 meters but not exceeding 24 meters. These vessels are designed for recreational or sporting purposes and are distinguished by their size range. Examples include yachts, speedboats, and cruisers within this specific length parameter.
It is crucial to differentiate this category from its siblings. HTS code 8903.31.00 encompasses motorboats of a length not exceeding 7.5 meters, making it suitable for smaller craft. Conversely, HTS code 8903.33.00 applies to motorboats exceeding 24 meters in length, designating larger vessels. This intermediate category, 8903.32.00, specifically targets mid-sized recreational motorboats.
Within this classification, further subdivisions exist to refine the classification based on propulsion type. The primary subcategory, denoted by the structure "Inboard/outdrive," highlights vessels propelled by inboard engines with external drive units. A residual category, 8903.32.00.25 ("Other"), captures motorboats within the specified length range that do not fall under the "Inboard/outdrive" designation, ensuring comprehensive coverage for all eligible vessels.
