If I live in Mississippi, and I want to drive a boat to Mexico, and back. What is the proper procedure for that?
If I live in Mississippi, and I want to drive a boat to Mexico, and back. What is the proper procedure for that?
Like can I just jump in my boat and go? Do I have to alert any authority about my trip? What are the chances the coast guard boards my boat to search it? How do you find a marina in Mexico? Do I have to alert the Mexican government of my trip? I assume I need a passport.
This is to settle a very polite heated discussion between my partner and I. Where neither of us know what we’re talking about.
You're viewing a single thread.
passport is bare minimum, but you need to get boat's papers in order. you gotta pay a visit to mexican consulate for that
putting some of these words in search engine of your preference should get you link like this: https://www.boatus.com/expert-advice/expert-advice-archive/2017/april/boaters-guide-to-crossing-the-border or like this https://consulmex.sre.gob.mx/vancouver/images/pdf/boat.pdf
"any vessel that leaves from a United States port and returns without calling at a foreign port or place has not departed the United States."
There goes my idea of running a gambling boat in international waters.
I'm not convinced the ideas are mutually exclusive. Then again I know nothing about maritime law arresteddevelopment.jpg

Were you going to have monkey fights on it aswell? Dang!
Florida has those. Worked on one in college.
