Well I am my accountant and I asked myself but did not know. I might have to fire myself! A call to customs resulted in a yes the import duty would be due but he waffled. Then he started asking my name and boat name! The Moorings seems to believe the tax would be due and has not opened a USVI base as a result. Not sure if that’s the true reason as they could stock the base with non US flagged vessels.
