Question Buying in Mexico or Canada
Are there any particular landmines I need to watch out for in considering a boat located in either Mexico or Canada? Taxes? Registration? Import fees?

mitiempo will become famous soon enough
If the boat is made in Canada there will not be duty because of free trade. I am not aware any boats made in Mexico.

Taxes and registration would not be any different whether you buy a local boat or import one I don't think.
