8903.93.20.30 - Exceeding 5 m in length

This HTS category, 8903.93.20.30, specifically classifies outboard motorboats that exceed 5 meters in length but fall within the broader grouping of "Other" vessels for pleasure or sports, excluding rowboats and canoes. The defining characteristic for this subcategory is the vessel's overall length exceeding this 5-meter threshold, while still being less than or equal to 7.5 meters. These are typically powered by an outboard motor and feature hulls constructed from metal.

The primary distinction from its sibling category, 8903.93.20.15, lies solely in the length measurement. While both are outboard motorboats with metal hulls intended for recreation, 8903.93.20.15 covers vessels *not exceeding* 5 meters in length. This category, therefore, encompasses the segment of these smaller, yet distinctively longer, metal-hulled outboard motorboats.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Classification within 8903.93.20.30 is definitive based on the vessel's length exceeding 5 meters but not exceeding 7.5 meters, its design as an outboard motorboat, and the material of its hull being metal. Examples would include various types of small fishing boats, runabouts, or utility boats with outboard propulsion systems that fit these precise dimensional and material criteria.
