Re: Buying an overseas vessel, Registration Questions

US notaries are often available at US consulates and embassies, if there is one in the seller's area. That can avoid the need for an apostille for the bill of sale.

Re: Buying a boat in Grenada

Hi John,
My understanding is that the first time a US boat arrives in a non-duty free US port, taxes are due on arrival. Where is the boat registered now? Have any taxes been paid anywhere?

Re: Buying a boat in Grenada

It comes down to: what do you mean by being based in Grenada for a couple of trips a year. How will the boat be stored while in Grenada? Where will you go on your trips?

Re: Buying foreign boat

Just a small point to add about the required bill of sale notarization. If you can do it without too much trouble in the country of purchase, use a US notary public. They are available at US...

Re: Drinking Water from watertanks

Thank you dfelsent.

That is truly useful advice about dilution. Since many of us use chemicals in our tanks and then rinse them clean, that will save lots of time and water.

Re: New webcam for backup camera. (Evil laugh)

We've been sailing the windwards for several seasons. However, for 8 days I think the BVIs (or including the USVIs) are a better choice. Especially if there is a beginner aboard and you like beaches....

Re: Intermittent Windlass Problem

It does sound like a brush problem. The brushes could be fine but still give problems if they are sticking in their channels due to built-up sludge.
