Import Tips

• Obtain a detailed vessel survey and builder's certificate confirming length, sailboat design, and pleasure use to support classification

• Ensure compliance with USCG documentation requirements and provide proof of non-commercial use to avoid reclassification

• Verify auxiliary motor specs in documentation, as it does not change the primary sailboat classification but must be declared
