HS v2022 Code: 890331

About motorboats; (other than outboard motorboats), for pleasure or sports, other than inflatable, of a length not exceeding 7.5m

HS code 890331 covers motorboats, other than outboard motorboats, used for pleasure or sports purposes. These compact, non-inflatable boats are an important part of the recreational boating industry, catering to the needs of individual consumers and small businesses. As a key component of the broader maritime transportation sector, this industry plays a vital role in supporting leisure activities, tourism, and related economic activities.

Production process

Motorboats within this HS code are typically manufactured using a combination of advanced materials and production techniques. The hull is often constructed from fiberglass-reinforced composites or aluminum alloys, providing strength, durability, and lightweight properties. The propulsion system, which may include inboard or stern-drive engines, is carefully engineered to deliver optimal performance and fuel efficiency. Specialized equipment, such as navigational instruments, seating, and storage compartments, is integrated into the boat's design to enhance the user experience.

Production inputs

The production of motorboats under HS code 890331 requires a range of inputs, including raw materials like fiberglass, resins, and aluminum; engine components such as motors, propellers, and fuel systems; and various electronic and mechanical parts for the boat's systems and features. Specialized machinery, such as molds, cutting tools, and assembly equipment, is also essential for the manufacturing process. Additionally, skilled labor, including boat designers, engineers, and technicians, is a critical input for this industry.

Production outputs

Motorboats classified under HS code 890331 are primarily used for recreational purposes, such as leisure boating, water sports, and tourism. These boats may be purchased by individual consumers or small businesses, such as rental companies or tour operators. The output of this industry can also be consumed by other related industries, such as 890310 Inflatable boats and 890391 Sailboats, with or without auxiliary motor, which may utilize similar components or serve complementary market segments.
