A few years back (before I purchased the Outrage 19), I seriously considered purchasing an Outrage 17 from WC member Saumon, who is in Quebec. He had a really nice boat - - he clearly took great pride in maintaining and improving it, and was a great guy to deal with - - so it was very tempting.
Besides the distance (about 700 miles each way), and time of year (late winter up there), I worried about the complication of bringing the boat across the border. Preliminary inquiries by both Saumon and me, indicated there would be some extra paperwork and time at the border crossing.
Me too! Steve's OR17 was a cream puff, I lusted over it but the drive for me was almost 1700 miles and I didn't have a driver or could I have explained it to my wife that I want a boat that far away.
