Pakboat ei onnistu!

Tarkoitus oli hankkia reissua varten Pakboat. Pakboatin valmistaja Alv Elvestad olisi pannut sen jenkeistä/Kiinasta postiin ja olisin noukkinut sen Whitehorsesta. Vaan ei onnistu. Pitää maksaa tullit ja vatit, jotta saa kanootin ulos, koska en tuo sitä tullessani. Ja sitten joutuisin maksamaan uudet maksut Suomessa. Ei hyvä. Tässä, mitä paikallinen viranomainen sanoo (punainen teksti):

I tried to get a Pakboat from U.S. to Canada without paying any taxes. I´m takinng it back to Finland & there I have to pay customs&taxes anyway. Can't do it, said my friends in Whitehorse.

What you can bring with you

As a visitor, you can bring certain goods into Canada for your own use as "personal baggage". Personal baggage includes clothing, camping and sports equipment, cameras and personal computers. It also includes vehicles, private boats and aircraft.
You must declare all goods when you arrive at the first CBSA port of entry. Border services officers do conduct examinations of goods being imported or exported to verify declarations. If you declare goods when you arrive and take them back with you when you leave, you will not have to pay any duty or taxes. These goods cannot be:
  • used by a resident of Canada;
  • used on behalf of a business based in Canada;
  • be given as a gift to a Canadian resident; or
  • disposed of or left in Canada.
Mutta paikallinen kontaktini Kanoe Peopleen, Gus Karpes kertoi, että ovat yrittäneet koottavilla Ally -kanooteilla, mutta ei  onnistu.
