C2C Inc has been providing licensed, bonded, and insured port agent services since 2003. With over 21 years of experience, we have successfully executed approximately 1250 arrivals and departures. Our seasoned agents know CBP staff by first name, understand the language used when dealing with officials, and are well-versed in the legalities and work flow around standard and uncommon customs-related tasks.

What sets us apart is our ability to evaluate the current operational status of the yacht IN ADVANCE OF ARRIVAL, and determine any risk factors working with customs, immigration, agriculture, harbor authorities, USCG and others. This level of expertise ensures that we can eliminate risks and look after the best interests of the yacht, crew, and owners.

It is always essential to do your homework and hire the right agent, just like hiring a new crew member, check references and qualifications. Young agents with a few months or even a few years of experience do not have the expertise required to handle these complex tasks. Mistakes made with CBP can be very costly, pick the right agent the first time and every time. ( tip: never walk in front of the person with the gun !! never ever. )

Hiring the right support for your superyacht is crucial. To ensure you get the best service, it's important to ask the right questions when hiring an agent. Here are a few suggestions on what to ask for:
- Proof of legal status as an agent business
- Confirmation that the agency is on the ground where support is needed
- List of at least 20 superyacht clients in the past 5 years
- References you can contact from at least 5 superyacht clients in the last 3 years
