Hello from Australia.
Have been thinking about the crazy idea of doing the Great Loop on a trawler.
Will be lurking here, but would welcome any thoughts on the logistics of an Australian buying a boat in the US (or Canada?) and selling it at then end of the Loop:
- any registration issues for a foreigner?
- visas (I can get a US tourist visa but will need to make sure that I exit within every six months, even though I can then return; have not yet looked at Canada)
- can an Australian get insurance on a US/Canadian boat?
There are probably a lot of other 'issues' that will need to be addressed!
