I am interested in hearing stories from anyone with unusual experiences regarding clearing in/out of US or other countries. For instance, unexpected fines or required paperwork. Problems over Proof of Duty paid as with a US citizen owning a foreign built boat for which the duty and entry occurred many years(decades/owners ago and the entry/duty papers can't be found. There are generally 3 separate government agencies to deal with: Customs, Immigration and Agriculture. I am interested in all 3. Responses that would be of interest to the list go ahead and post on line, otherwise send directly to me. I will re-post some of the more interesting ones with the results of my research, perhaps in summary form. Regards, Mike _____________________________________ Capt.
