35' Indoor Boat Slip - Purchase Assumptions

Purchase Price:
$78,000

Rent vs. Buy
EXAMPLE ONE

This example uses a fairly typical price point for the purchase of a 35' rack and should provide a good comparison for a new state-of-the-art hurricane resistant indoor dry storage facility utilizing forklifts for the haul and launch process.

The rental rate of $420 per month is based on $14 per linear foot - and is the average for a center console boat with T-TOP, a 34-35' overall length and a beam of 10.5 - 12 feet

This example DOES NOT include the ADDITIONAL INCOME that is earned through straight line depreciation. Depending on the type of use and how your accountant or tax attorney sets up your investment, this type of unit can be typically be straight line depreciated over a 10 or 20 year term.

Break Even is in 1.2 Years

If you do not plan on keeping you slip for at least 1.2 years then you should consider continuing to rent. If you plan to keep you boat slip for a couple of years you should seriously consider purchasing it if the option is available.
