Dont know how much I can help. Since I didn't sail my FL boat back up
last yr. When I bought. I had 30 days to take the boat out of FL. The
boat arrive into Canada(Toronto) via truck. It was NOT registered in
Canada before coming in.
When I did register, they wanted proof I was the owner and that I had
payed my taxes. Which I showed them the paper work(photocopies) from the
broker and the import brokers papers that I did pay the taxes.
Based on someone elses experence that I know, they had the boat shipped
from Boston to the NY side of Lake Ontario. They then sailed it across
the lake to Canada, and called customs to let them know they are over
and payed their taxes at that point.
So from what I understand is this. If you have the titled transfered to
your name, have the taxes payed for the boat(even if it's in FL for
example), go down to the registration office here in Canada get your
numbers, they give you them on the spot. You should be fine to lug it
back to Canada. Less of a problem when you arrive in Canada and when you
call into customs you can tell them, YES I paid my taxes and here is my
registration number.

He said the current owner is making him re-register it

I don't know that he can force it though. I don't know
the laws in all of the states but in Florida as long as
the sticker is good and you have the signed title you have
30 days to do the registration.

I don't have the docs but read somewhere another person
tried same,
applied with Home Security and was told he had to have
all the
paperwork completed, Canadian registry, etc. before he
could apply to
US for cruising permit (post 9/11). Took months and
months to
comply and then "they" held him up with details this and
details that.
If it was me, i'd keep the boat us registered and sail
for canada.
Deal with the Canadian part when I got there.
But then again I like to think that it's "easier to
plead ignorance
then to get permission"

I have a Canadian friend that is buying a boat in the US
and sailing it back to Canada. He is wondering if he
needs to get a US Cruising permit to bring it back to
Canada.
Anyone have any experiance with this? Does he need it?
If so how does he get it?
Thanks,
