SAVE OUR YACHTS
The boneheads in state government and on the Supreme Court seem to think that we should keep paying state taxes just like regular people do. But we’ve built a lifestyle for ourselves that shouldn’t be ripped away because of some “law”. The rules have never applied to us before, why should they now?
SAVE OUR BILLIONS
Life after (potential) loss, a story of the resilience of a group of unlikely heroes; the wealthy few. Set in Washington state, where the Capital Gains Tax rips through the pockets of millionaires and billionaires, we hear about the impact the tax has had on members of our Save Our Yachts community and the man who’s helping bring us to justice; Brian Heywood.

We have a new hero in Brian Heywood, who has already spent $6 million of his own money to protect us from having to pay what we owe in capital gains excise taxes. He understands that many of us are upgrading our yachts for the summer, and now is NOT the time for us to keep paying taxes on our Wall Street profits. One year of it was enough!! If you agree, join the Save Our Yachts Campaign supporting Washington Initiative 2109!
WHAT WE STAND FOR
WHY WE SHOULDN’T HAVE TO PAY TAXES ON WALL STREET PROFITS
Our money works hard making money off itself in the stock market. We need that money to buy new yachts and vacation homes so we can be far away from our communities that are always nagging about funding things like public schools and quality care for children.
Who needs public schools and child care anyway? Our children attend private schools and have private tutors and au pairs, so we don’t care about the public education, child care, and early learning these tax dollars are funding.
We pay good money to avoid paying taxes. Washington’s tax code is upside-down, and that’s great for those of us on top! We’ve spent decades bankrolling election campaigns and paying corporate lobbyists to pass laws that help us avoid taxes. And now, Brian Heywood is joining the fun by buying us this ballot initiative!
Just because almost every other state taxes capital gains doesn’t mean Washington should too. Are we so rich that we don’t even notice this tax? Yes! But our accountants that help us dodge taxes let us know about it, and that’s why we launched this campaign to educate our fellow 0.2% of super-rich Washingtonians about how they will profit from I-2109.

I just can’t thank the team at Save Our Yachts enough for sharing our stories. This documentary shines a light on an underrepresented community, the true victims of the capital gains tax – us, the wealthy few! While others make fun of us and think we should pay this tax, they don’t understand the cost; waiting an extra week to buy our second yacht. Save Our Yachts understands the lifestyle we’ve cultivated while dodging taxes, and respects that we’re NOT about to give that up now!

Thank god Brian Heywood is looking out for us here at Save Our Yachts! I don’t know what we’d do without him and the $6 million he’s put up to help us repeal the Capital Gains Tax. I paid that tax for one year and even though my accountants say it’s fine, it’s the principle of the thing! Why should I have to pay taxes like everyone else? Don’t they know who I am? This is hands down the hardest thing I’ve had to go through, even worse than waiting for my Cybertruck preorder to be ready, and that’s saying A LOT!
