Last updated: April 2026 dataMid-range cruising and racing sailboats between 7.5 and 24 meters represent the heart of the performance and bluewater sailing market, and France dominates US imports in this segment — a reflection of major builders such as Bénéteau and Jeanneau. The US schedule subdivides the heading by auxiliary-motor presence and by a 9.2-meter length break, yielding four tariff lines (8903220015, 8903220020, 8903220025, 8903220060). Finland, Germany, Italy, and Spain round out the leading supplier group, underscoring the European concentration of fiberglass production at this size range. Brokers handling these entries should verify the vessel's LOA documentation and motor configuration, as the 9.2-meter threshold is a common classification flashpoint.

A builder's certificate, CE declaration of conformity (for European-built vessels), or a marine surveyor's measurement certificate stating overall length is the standard supporting document. CBP may also accept the vessel's registration papers if they specify LOA. Importers should ensure the document explicitly states overall hull length rather than waterline or deck length.
Pleasure vessels from most European suppliers in this heading are not currently subject to broad Section 301 or antidumping measures, but trade-remedy exposure can change. Importers should check the USTR and Commerce Department remedy lists at the time of entry, particularly for vessels sourced from countries that may be subject to other tariff actions.
