import duty or tax when importing a boat

Any one know how to bring a boat to the US after purchasing in a foreign country( not USA flagged or registered)? What are the duties or taxes if any? Loop holes? Exceptions? Are there any US saftey requirements the boat must meet in order to register her in the US?

Example: If I buy a boat from a country that wires thier boats differently than what a US spec boat, is it considered not registerable . Kinda like bringing in a gray-market car that might not meet the US saftey standards. Is there such a rule of standards for imported boats?
