Straight from my tax people about depreciating my boat:
Only if it is used to generate income, like rental income, racing winnings, drug trafficking etc.

I'd be careful, that "drug trafficking" revenue stream might be looked at by other governmental entities however, at least when there's a bust you can tell them your clean with the IRS!

I hereby offer to take care of anyone's ex race boat that they can't sell. Leave it as is with engines, drives, etc, and I will be happy to drop by and pick it up-just leave the keys in the ignitions so I can find them
