Import, Document, Escrow Service Ft. Lauderdale?
Hi all,
No forum seems to be the right one for this question, so asking it here. Can anyone recommend an import (handle duties, EPA, DOT, USCG, etc), documentation (title transfer), escrow service in the Ft. Lauderdale area? US citizen buying foreign flagged directly from owner. Thanks!

Re: Import, Document, Escrow Service Ft. Lauderdale?
Hi... I imported my UK flagged boat into Florida back in 2013. Here's the contact details for the people I used...
Karen Hudson, LCB CCS
Office Manager | John S. James Co. | Jacksonville FL USA | TEL: 904.356.9646 X 201 | FAX: 904.356.0673
Everything went smoothly and the boat sold to a Florida based US citizen so similar, I guess, to your situation.

I had great service from Kimberly at ASAP Marine (asapmarinedocs.com) on a relatively complex deflag, import/re-flag transaction, highly recommend her. I spent more than 20 years as a Coast Guard officer and she know some things about the CG registration process I didn't, and the fees are so reasonable as to seem too low given the expertise you're buying and the hassle you can avoid.

We’ve used Saxton Documentation based out of Ft Lauderdale and were happy.
