Has anyone experience with a Vista 245 from 1990 and a CE certificate for EU? I just bought this nice boat and now the customs office is giving me a hard time because the boat doesn't have a CE certificate. It was never registered in the EU before... so the boat is treated as a new boat. I need some help with the certificate - without having to change the engine if possible. |

identifies it as complying with all the of safety requirements established by the European Union. The CE Mark is a requirement and not a voluntary process. CE certification is obtained from Notified Bodies, organizations that are recognized by European states to conduct CE assessments and issue CE certification documents. If a boat is not certified for CE Marking when it should be, it is no longer a grey import, it is quite simply illegal. If you put an illegally imported boat into service or on the market within the EU you are committing a criminal offence with the maximum penalty being a £5000 fine and / or 3 months in prison. In some countries you run the additional risk that the boat will be impounded until CE Marking is carried out. Find out if your boat qualifies as an ASB. Does it have ALL of the following parameters? Hull length between 2.5 & 9m (8' 2" and 29' 6") Glass Fibre construction (GRP) Hard Chine hull Powered by sterndrive(s) or outboard(s) Design Category C or D Built or re-engined less than 10 years ago? If your boat has all of these characteristics, then it qualifies as an ASB CEProof | American Imports (ASB) http://www.ceproof.com/CE-Marking/.../M ... ports.html ©CEproof Group Ltd, 8 The Old Mill, The Bridge, Wroxham, Norfolk, NR12 8DA t:+44 (0)1603 781383 e:enquiries@ceproof.com |
