 Donating a boat or watercraft to Rawhide is quick and easy and, it can help change a life!
Rawhide's experienced, knowledgeable Sales staff is committed to maximizing the funds generated from your boat donation in order to benefit the boys in our care and to maximize your tax benefits. According to the current tax law, donors are allowed to claim up to $500 or the amount Rawhide is able to sell the boat donation for.
The income generated when you donate a boat or watercraft allows us to provide quality education, counseling, and work experience training as well as food, clothing, and a loving family environment to at-risk young men.
Rawhide does not use a third party to process boat donations; all donations are handled directly by our Sales staff. They will process the paperwork and handle the logistics of obtaining and then selling your donation.
After receiving your boat donation, we will evaluate it and review any information you may have provided about the item. Inspection of the engine, interior, and exterior will help us determine the overall condition of the boat and whether or not to invest in making any repairs. We will then determine the best place to sell your boat donation. Rawhide sells most boat donations on eBay, which provides international exposure and allows us to obtain the highest sale price possible. |

| Consideration of Repairs | | | Rawhide does not make repairs to all boats. Boats or watercraft in need of repair may still provide a financial benefit to Rawhide. We inspect each item that is donated and decide whether or not to make repairs based on the return on investment. Generally, if the repairs cost more than the item is valued at, or if it will not increase the resale value of the boat donation we will not make the repair. The decision to make a repair is at the sole discretion of Rawhide staff. |
