More investigation on what you need is probably worth your time.

We entered on the Pacific side in 2010 and departed two months ago. I haven't heard of a Notarized crew list, I assume it is something being done on the
Caribbean side. We prepared crewlists on our boat computer or the Port
Captain will provide a blank form.
When we entered, you could
purchase your Temporary
Import Permit in country at the API Office in
La Paz, but you can also order it on line. It takes about two weeks and is mailed to you in the USA. TIPs are valid for ten years.
You need to have Mexican insurance coverage... You can buy liability insurance on line for abour $250 per year. If you don't have liability insurance in Mexico and you hurt someone with your boat, they WILL put you i jail until they figure things out and you come up with
money. It is best to a Spanish langauge copy!
In addition to the above list, if you have a loan on the baot you need to have a certified letter from the lein holder allowing the boat to travel into Mexixo...
