My boat lives there in the winter. 8’ draft so I have to wait for a very high tide to get in and out. Nice competent people and you can work on your boat yourself.Please show your appreciation for this list and the Photo Album site and help me pay the associated bills. Make a contribution at:
Lovely anchorages around there, too.AndyAndrew Burton26 Beacon HillNewport, RIUSA 02840+401 965 5260On Jan 2, 2023, at 17:16, Dave S via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote:Contemplating my next boat and have realized that sailing is best enjoyed in a place that isn’t frozen. Am looking to purchase a boat - likely in the Caribbean, with the intention of cruising farther afield in 2-3 years. The border services (taxation) folks in my beautiful native Canada are most willing to share in the adventure by charging an exorbitant stack o’taxes and duties should said boat arrive for importation in Canada to enjoy a 4 month sailing season or two. As a Canadian citizen I cannot not import it, not easily anyway.
So - we go away and we stay away, and we refit in the USA.
Can anyone recommend a yard in the south east that is reasonable and decent to deal with? I have been told that if Florida then north of Jupiter.
Anyone have any other thoughts or experience on the subject?
Many thanks all.
