- There is no question that Mexico has the right to enforce the laws. Visiting Marinas and checking for permits is nothing new. It is done all the time. Often the marina owners insist that all boats have current permits., These visits are NOT done with police. Usually just the Aduana inspectors. I cannot understand the need for such a show of force. And according to the story some of those boats were 100% legal. Those who without proper papers get no sympathy from me. Regardless this is not the proper way to enforce laws. Unless you are a Banana Republic or South Korea! Can you imagine how all of this is discussed on Boating forums?

Thanks John for answering my question ;)- I bought a brand new Toyota in 1969. When it finally wore out in 1989 I scrapped it and turned in the B.C. licence Plate.
Turned out that the Principle Operator (Me) listed on the registration had a completely different Drivers Licence Number from the one that has been in My Wallet since I started to drive back in 1963.
I have no idea how many Tickets that other individual received in the mail ! - Not sure I'm following the uproar of some. Do some countries not enforce their permit laws and as a result Mexico should do the same? Seems simple enough. If you go to an RV park and they ask for money to stay there you can either pay it or leave. Can't see why this is different. Maybe I missed something.
Oh, and I think Delaware is the Walmart brand of Tupperware. - For those people with yachts docked here in San Carlos and anchored in the harbor - those owners sure as hell can afford to understand and comply with local law.
A loud publicly prominent display of enforcement of those laws is a very good way to motivate compliance with the law.
No sympathy for anyone with money and attitude. - All countries including the United States of America have laws governing importation of goods, and if you happen to ignore the laws, eventually the law enforcement agencies will come to visit.
Some persons may have thought that they could keep vesels in Mexican waters with out having to obtain TEMPORARY IMPORTATION PERMITS, or they did get a permit and yust never left the territory and cancel the TIP and reenter with a new one.
If I have a 10 year TIP on my Motor home and I do not take the RV out after 10 years and surrender the hollogram and paper work and yust simply ignore the law, with the advent of computers the Customs personel will be alerted to the discrepacy, same as with the 180 day tourist visa and or the vehicle permits.
That will happen in any country when importation statutes and laws are broken.
