Import Tips
• Label clearly as 'pleasure/sports' use only; commercial markings could trigger reclassification to 8901
• Submit engine horsepower specs separately if motor exceeds certain thresholds for vessel safety compliance
• Check for anti-dumping duties on specific aluminum alloys used in hull fabrication
