Yes you can .... you need a bonded locker. Just about every
commmercial ship has one.


Please tell us more. What comprises a bonded locker and how does one get it
bonded?



A Bondable Customs Locker is a solid builtin and unremovable Secure
Storage that has a place for a Customs Seal across the entrace of the
Locker. When boarded, the Customs Official will ask if there are
Bonded Items aboard, and if the asnwer is yes, then he will watch as all
bondable items are placed in said Secure Customs Locker, and then he will
SEAL the locker with a Customs SEAL, that if broken inside their
Jurasdictional Waters, will subject the Master to immediate Arrest for
violation of the Customs Rules of that counrty. Some countries will
not allow you to keep a Customs Locker, but will hold your Bondable Items
for you, untill you are ready to leave their jurasdiction.
