OK - Thanks for all the brilliant advice - well appreciated . We are importing my Seacraft ( as suggested by germansaleen) together with all our personal possessions as we are returning to the UK from the USA. As it stands advice also from here & from the shippers is that this way we will not have to pay import duty or Vat on any items owned over 6 months that have tax paid here in the USA. We will soon find out....!!!!
Question: Are there any other classic Seacraft owners out there in the UK? The classic Seacraft (pre1983) have a strong reputation over here as they are strong handling & quick , they have a great USA following & website

If there are any other known Seacraft in the UK then please do let me know thru this forum.
