Unless you get it on a boat crossing the border you're gonna hate the import duty

going south
I am going to be prepared. I have the dealers sales recite and my boat info. We will be headed south thru Tecate 7:00 am'ish. I am meeting a friend
that lives in the Loreto area year round and we will drive down together as we have done in the past. Over the past 5-6 years I have driven down
10-12 times, each time my van and box tailor gets looked at and I have been wished a good trip each time as the door is closed. I'll post my trip
results.

Good luck. We had one about the same size headed to Loreto. Crossed SY at 4 am and was told we had to go to Otay which didn't open to 7 or 8. Slipped
them $400 and was on our way.
Say what you want about the mordida but the countless hours saved was worth the money. Not to mention the import tax was likely to be much, much more.

yep...
 She was a good girl but I think that this time is was NOT the running it enough, but the salt water atmosphere environment .
My boat has been south since 2006. Mi amigo David Cunningham [Best mechanic] in Loreto, showed it to him and he told me,
" Yes. I have seen this 5 times with the Yamaha 200".
I said NO. 6- times...

How did it go at the border, though? Did they see it and tax you?

Use this stuff.... http://www.saltawayproducts.com/128flozPage.htm
Breaks down the salt inside the motor...especially the thermostat and water pump.
I use it each and every time after use.

DaliDali... yes saltaway....
I have to tell you that the folks at Importation Dept. Tacate are the best people in that town... THE best. I can U2U anyone that needs the
details, but I am telling you everything that I had to deal with was the best...
