IN RE BARBERA

No. 02-11413.

285 B.R. 355 (2002)

In re John J. BARBERA Cheryl K. Barbera, Debtors.

United States Bankruptcy Court, D. Rhode Island.

October 15, 2002.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Russell D. Raskin, Esq., Raskin & Berman, Providence, RI, for Debtors.

Marc D. Wallick, Esq., Wallick & Associates, Warwick, RI, Chapter 7 Trustee.

ORDER DENYING EXEMPTION

ARTHUR N. VOTOLATO, Bankruptcy Judge.

Heard on the Trustee's Objection to a claimed exemption in a 1979 Sea Ray cabin cruiser, valued by the Debtors at $2,500. At issue is whether this boat may be classified as a "motor vehicle," which would render it exempt under R.I. Gen. Laws § 9-26-4(13). For the reasons set forth below, I find that the Debtors' boat does not qualify as exempt property.
