Flyer returns to Europe Dear Members, Flyer (Swan 57/007) is returning to Europe. I have commissioned her returns in the coming June, from the USA to South Brittany (France). Flyer has been “deleted from the US documentation, as I was intending to register her with a French flag. I am now confronted to some importation issues, as she does have any “CE Marking”. I have then to declare an import with a potential very demanding process. To make it short, either Flyer has to go through a thorough survey to get some EU Certification or I have to provide with some documents that assert that the Swan 57 complies with this CE Requirements. Could any of you be so kind and provide me with your experience in this specific aspect? |

Dear Alberto, Thank you for your message and for sharing your experience in this matter: This gives me hope to go through this process. I have contacted the regional Mer & Littoral administration and you are right, even if the construction of the boat was before the CE marking regulation, there is some equivalence. I shall let you know about the proceedings of this importation Benoit |

Thanks a lot for you very valuable advices. They have been very helpful: After a very cumbersome process, FLYER is now registered with Import, and French Affaires Marimes . The essential steps have been: 1. Getting the acknowledgement from the Affaires Maritimes, that the Swan 57 had been approved by the Marine Marchande, 2. With this information, asking the Customs administration to import Flyer temporarily (as the import can only be definitive, once in the French Territory). The recourse to an agent has been necessary. 3. Once imported (even temporarily), asking the Affaires Maritimes to register Flyer. This was also required to get radio license for VHF, BLU and EPIRBs. Flyer is now preparing its upcoming June passage and excitement is rising up. Let’ pray for fair winds Benoit |
