Boats for Sale


Working with professionals at Block Island Maritime Funding in Newport, Rhode Island, MITA administers one of the most sophisticated boat donation programs in New England. We will accept seaworthy boats that we will promptly sell or charter. The donor will receive a tax deduction and MITA will use the proceeds to support its stewardship of Maine islands. Our program is designed to provide a maximum deduction with a minimum of delay and hassle, and we will pay a commission to boat yards and boat brokers that refer a donation to us. For more information write or call MITA.

MITA also accepts donations of small boats and resells them to benefit our stewardship programs.
