"Undesirable alien" buying a US flagged boat
sorry, jeffies, people have lost their documentation by letting noncitizens
control (meaning no citizen onboard) their documented boats. you are talking aboutthe special case of chartering below. OK. 46CFR221 goes into some detail about the process of chartering, including the permissions required to charter to non-citizens and the fees involved (several hundred dollars) to obtain this approval. However, 46CFR221.11: (b)(1) The approvals required by paragraph (a)(1) of this section are not required for the following Documented Vessel types if the vessel has been operated exclusively and with bona fides for one or more of the following uses, under a Certificate of Documentation with an appropriate endorsement and no other, since initial documentation or renewal of its documentation following construction, conversion, or transfer from foreign registry, or, if it has not yet so operated, if the vessel has been designed and built and will be operated for one or more of the following uses: ... (iv) A Pleasure vessel. Once again, jaxie, you're busted. "JAXAshby" wrote in message ... sorry, dude. That's your job. sorry, dude. aliens are not allowed to document a boat in the US. In addition, aliens are not allowed to operate a US documented boat without a citizen aboard. maybe charter boats have a special exemption? maybe the CG doesn't check? Maybe there's no such regulation? The CFR is online, jaxie, it shouldn't be too hard for you to find the reg. |

dum-dum, are quoting -- out of context -- the special case of chartering. The
discussion was and is about a noncitizen buying a documented boat in the US and how he might document (or register) that boat. The reality is that he can't. He can NOT document as a noncitizen. Nor can he control a US documented vessel, for documentation is lost immediately by him doing so. Period. Many countries insist on documentation of a vessel to allow it in its waters. *some* countries will accept state registration. To register a boat in any state requires a drivers license, or state ID card. To get either requires an original Social Security Card or a visa. The clown who deliberately broke the British national security law can not get either a SS card or a visa in this country. He is **** out of luck. As well he should be. What is this,jaxie, you just grabbed a random section of the CFR and now claim its relevant? I posted the reg that explicitly says its OK to charter a pleasure boat to a non-citizen. "JAXAshby" wrote in message ... from the Code of Federal Regulations: "q) Transfer means the passing of control of or an interest in a Documented Vessel and includes the involuntary conveyance by a foreign judicial or administrative tribunal of any interest in or control of a Documented Vessel owned by a Citizen of the United States to a Noncitizen that is not eligible to own a Documented Vessel." |

I'm not quoting out of context. You claimed twice that it was absolutely
illegal for a non-citizen to operate a documented vessel without a citizen onboard. That is simply not true. For chartering commercial vessels, special permission must be applied for, but this is not required for pleasure boats. Fishing vessels are a special case - there are severe restrictions on chartering to non-citizens. As to the issue of selling a boat - I was the first to point out that the Documentation would lapse if it was sold.

jeffies, you idiot. you found a special chartering case to support a point
that was not under discussion. PEOPLE HAVE LOST THEIR DOCUMENTATION BECAUSE THEY LET A NONCITIZEN OPERATE THEIR BOAT. to anyone who has a documented boat and has noncitizen friends or a spouse who might be inclined to use your boat without you aboard, do consider that if the CG boards your boat -- and even a safety check -- you can lose your documentation. Ignore jeffies. It is your boat, your documentation. I'm not quoting out of context.

dave, *I* suggest you take a look at the word "control" as interpreted by the
courts. sorry, jeffies, people have lost their documentation by letting noncitizens control (meaning no citizen onboard) their documented boats. I'd suggest you take a careful look at the meaning of "control" in this context, bearing in mind that there are specific provisions dealing with owners, officers and directors of a corporation. My suspicion is that "control" is not synonymous with "operate." For example, if a person has the power to elect a majority of a corporation's directors, he's generally said to "control" the corporation, and might also be said to "control" the vessel owned by the corporation, even if he's 1000 miles away from it.

In other words, no "citizen" acting as a straw man while the boat is effectively owned, or controlled, by a noncitizen. |

There's a catch-22 situation in this: in order to register the boat in Belgium, it has to be physically present in Belgium, but ... in order to sail it to Belgium, it has to be registered :( Ah that's useful to know, so in my case, as I want to sail it back to NZ over a period of several years, I could just sail it unregistered. |

You could try registering it in my province, Ontario. When I registered my boat all they wanted was the bill of sale and the GST, (8%), didn't ask where I was from, or for ID for that matter. This is not the same as documentation, but you get a nice little certificate that says that you are the owner of the vessel and that it is registered in Canada. You then must put a set of letters and numbers on the side of the vessel. Cheers Marty |

Lot of truth in that. The USA asserts the right to search US registered vessels anywhere, any time, in international waters. AFAIK the USCG asserts it's rights to search any vessel, anywhere, priod. Nationality of register does not enter the equation. Quite a few countries don't agree, and for the most part, the USCG doesn't get in their face about it. Although there have been a few cases under 'hot pursuit' doctrine. ... Somehow it escapes the right wing nutcases like CA that this violates US citizens' right to be free from arbitrary search. It doesn't escape them, it's just more comfortable to ignore it. Besides, not even the US Constition guarantees the same freedoms on the water to those on land. WRT attitudes there was a book published recently by an Australian woman. She was a left wing bleeding heart who I'd argue with instantly but some of her observations on US boats & attitudes were interesting. Like what? If you're going to take the boat out of the USA ASAP, try the Cook Islands or similar. As a NZ citizen you might find registering it there relatively simple - pay and forget. Panama possibly? Possibly, but re-registering an American boat in Panama might be a red flag to the drug war troops. There is a huge expat poppulation in the Caribbean, and most of them seem to have boats. I don't know what they do about registry, but it might be worth looking into. Fresh Breezes- Doug King |

There are several different issues going on here. One is "control" as in
ownership, and the law as are very clear - documented vessels must be owned by citizens. The stockholders of a holding corporation must be mostly citizens, etc. Jax is also claiming that the operator of the vessel must also be a citizen - in particular he's claiming that if you loan or charter your documented vessel to a non-citizen you at in violation. I found the CPR that specifically permits chartering of recreational vessels, and I've never heard that loaning is forbidden. If it were anyone but jaxie I'd be tempted to call the CG and ask.

Plans change for unforeseen circumstances once the boat is in Europe, say somewhere in the Antwerp area, and you exercise your option to purchase the boat. The boat is then registered in Belgium and tax is paid based on it's purchase price of $10,000. An alternative might be to sell a partnership interest to an American, who could document the boat.
