The Associated Marine Institute accepts boat donations and sells refurbished boats to fund community–based programs for over 5,000 at–risk kids that come into the juvenile justice system.

AMI operates at more than 50 schools across the country and depends on donations and private funding to keep its programs alive.

If you want to be rid of your boat and the costs associated with it, donating is an easy way to go.

If you'd like to buy a larger boat but can't afford one on the mainstream market, AMI can likely help.
