I purchased a used boat in the U.S. myself last fall and I can honestly say it was a lot of running around and stress. Carrying that much cash with me over the border is an issue as the U.S. doesn't want you to carry more than $10K across the border, and how else are you going to pay some guy in th...

The ...

One trip we had so many Cod we literally filled both containers and then used them to block off the back half of the boat and filled that ...
