I would be the skipper, acting on behalf of the owner. He wants to be able to write off a large portion of the expense. I’ve been told that a 501c3 organization may work for us. We will be spending $250,000 on the boat, with an annual operating cost of $170,000. This is mostly for equipment, pro salaries, flights, hotels, parking, etc.

Can you educate me about our options.”
Gee Chad.
That sounds like a wonderful opportunity – what a great idea!

But, if I were wealthy enough to sink nearly half a million dollars into this venture, I certainly wouldn’t be letting an amateur fumble about, setting up my non-profit organization. There’s too much risk of doing it improperly and losing the charitable contribution deduction. I’d turn this over to the professionals – here are a couple of good options, if you don’t know anyone who can help – https://eoag.com in Los Angeles.
Also, Sandy Deja, who maintains the step-by-step do-it-yourself site is available to review the application, or to file it for you. https://form1023help.com/_wsn/page17.html
Though, personally, I’d look to someone locally who can be with you through the long term.
