everything you need to know

Although this vessel is USCG documented, import duty has never been paid in the United States—or in any other jurisdiction.

Therefore, a buyer intending to return her to their country of residence would likely be required to pay the applicable taxes or import duties there.

Alternatively, the yacht could potentially be registered under an offshore registry, which may allow for the issuance of a cruising permit.

However, if financing is required, please note that we are not aware of any lenders who would provide funds for a vessel that has not been formally imported, tax-paid, and physically located within the lending institution’s country.

If purchased outright with cash, many of these considerations may not apply.

We strongly recommend that you carefully research your options before committing time or money to a vessel that you may not be able to complete the purchase of for the reasons outlined above.

Feel free to reach out—we may be able to advise further

Other Information about The Little Ship Company

Having started in the aircraft industry as an apprentice engineer in the mid seventies, the progression to sailboats was natural. Arriving in the Caribbean in 1981 for the first time, I was hooked on the beauty and the lifestyle. It took me more than 10 years back home to afford and rebuild my first yacht, which, after having sailed across from Africa in the early nineties, has been our permanent home. After chartering and being involved in almost all the aspects of the marine industry for over fourty years, we now have a family and don't do charters anymore.... we still have the boat though!
