Coast Guard Inspections
Bruce,
I boat in Lake St.Clair, Michigan. The lake is half owned by Canada, in fact the river that feeds it (St. Clair River) and the river that it empties into (Detroit River) are both shared with Canada, so it's very easy to be in Canadian waters. I've heard of Customs inspecting boats as they were loaded onto their trailers. From what I've heard this isn't a common occurrence. Paul "Bruce in Alaska" wrote in message ...

I understand that if you have a trailer boat they can follow you home and then search the home. Customs has a lot of power. Paul Not sure about Customs, if you didn't leave US Waters. I suspect that if you "cleared customs" that they then would need a Warrent for any further inspection. If you didn't leave US Waters then they would need "Cause" to board you, I think.

Paul As soon as the US drug manufacturer *******s can buy off your congressman, mandatory inspections for cheaper Canadian-sourced prescriptions will become more important than the length and weight of the fish in the bucket. |
