Vessel Donation

26 North Yachts is proud to have represented Fins Attached, a leading Marine Research & Conservation non-profit organization, in its acquisition of SHARKWATER, a 134′ Research Vessel. Few organizations have done more to promote conservation of our precious marine ecosystems or to protect sharks, the oceans’ critical apex predator. Fins Attached is a section 501(c)(3) tax-exempt charity as defined by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service.

We are particularly excited to announce that Fins Attached has begun accepting boat & yacht donations. By donating your vessel, you will enable this worthwhile non-profit to continue, and hopefully expand, its vital mission – in the process, your donation may result in significant tax & other benefits to you.
