Re: California Consumer Use Tax After Living Aboard In Mexico

Thanks for that. It seems pretty clear. You have 90 days or "one-half or more of the time during the six-month period immediately following" purchase to get the boat out of California. We will be...

Re: Wife is Close to Axing Cruising Dreams

Who says OP's wife is good? If she was that great wouldn't she be working towards a concession or working plan instead of axing the dream? If my wife came to me and said, "I think we should climb...

Hey, 37' boat here with hank-on headsails. Hank-on is fine for a 28ft boat, but almost all of the small cruising boats I've seen lately have roller furling anyway.

Re: Our recent test trip with our dog.... (the dog loves the boat!)

We put lifeline netting (buy cheap soccer net from sports store) for our pooch, but now feel exposed when we sail on a boat without it. More to grab onto if you go flying and it also catches the...

Re: Our recent test trip with our dog.... (the dog loves the boat!)

As to regulations: Mexico couldn't care less. We don't bother with paper work anymore. The last few times we've entered, we just let him run around the immigration areas and they spend more time...

Re: Mexico. Go or no go?

No Go. Don't come. If you are coming in with those worries, I think they will become self-perpetuating prophecies. I used to believe that travel opens peoples eyes, but now I only think it works for...
