Investment Opportunity

As part of the $42 billion dollar incentive program being rolled out by the Australian Government, they have put place an investment allowance for the acquisition of business related assets. Up to 50% investment allowance is provided and charter yachts are meeting the compliance requirements set down by the ATO as being a legitimate business as opposed to an enterprise.

These opportunitys come up very rarely, however there are now two vacancies in a Whitsunday charter fleet for a new Beneteau Oceanis 40 and Oceanis 43. This means that 50% of your expense on purchasing either yacht is a tax deduction that is claimed up front, in the current financial year. It is not a form of rebate or grant, it is simply an additional tax deduction over and above the depreciation.

In addition, you get a great return on your investment as it is located in one of the best charter yacht locations in the world, plus you might get the opportunity to use the boat yourself each year as well!

Please contact our office for more information.


Beneteau Race Results

The major highlight in the results over the last month has without a doubt been Mike Welsh on board their Beneteau First 40 'Wicked' (pictured below). Mike and his crew not only won the AMS division in the Queenscliffe to Stanley Race, but also finished 4th overall on IRC just behind the two 52 footers and a DK46. Well done guys!
