Details on US - Canada crossing
It appears that the total picture for going from US to
Canada and back is pretty aweful. I have no experience in this venue. Can someone tell me what is involved in this in reality? I have read the official Web links about going and coming. It just seems like it is a real hassle and not worth the time to go from WA to Canada. The Canada guys measure booze coming in and and the US guys measure booze coming in. What is the big deal? I have no problem with the passports requirement. What else are they going to hassle us about? Are either of the customs entities going to titrate our booze to see what proof it is to base it on the allowed volume? They don't seem to make a distinction about this other than beer and wine and wine coolers. What about coming from Canada to Roche Harbor or Friday Harbor? This sounds like a horrific experience. However, I heard on VHF that each boat took about 15-20 minutes to clear customs before getting a slip. Does this event complete customs and immigration? If not, what is involved in doing so? Sigh.... Yes, we are newbies between WA and Canada. Gary Gaugler, Ph.D. Microtechnics, Inc. Granite Bay, CA 95746 916.791.8191 gary@microtechnics dot com |
