Default Importing

I bought my boat in BC, Canada 3 years ago. There was *no* duty to be paid
if the boat was built in the USA or in Canada. There were also no Canadian
taxes to be paid, but the broker told me that in order to avoid the Canadian
taxes, they had to deliver the boat to me in the U.S. and I had to take
possession here. The sale and transfer was all simple with no
complications. A delivery captain brought the boat down from Vancouver to
Blain for a minimal charge, customs brought their sniffer dogs on board and
I took possession in a bout 30 min.

WRONG! There will indeed be duty to be paid. It's that way when buying in
the US and importing to Canada.
