About heading 8903

Yachts and other vessels for pleasure or sports; row boats and canoes

Heading 8903 covers yachts and other vessels for pleasure or sports, plus row boats and canoes. It is split first by type: inflatable boats, sailboats, motorboats other than outboard, and a residual other group that holds outboard motorboats, row boats and canoes. The subheadings then turn on length, hull material, whether the boat is designed for a motor, and in the inflatable lines the unladen weight and value.
