    • Update on Small Vessel Reporting System from Explorer Charts

      Explorer Charts - the best charts for the Bahamas and Exumas

      Our thanks to Monty Lewis of Explorer Charts, long the standard navigational supplement for enjoyable, informative, and safe cruising through the beautiful Bahamian waters and A CRUISERS’ NET PARTNER, for this update on SVRS in the Bahamas.

      SVRS will be replaced by CBP ROAM app
      Published April 28, 2018 | By Marc-Juno
      The U.S. Customs CBP ROAM app allows pleasure boaters to report their arrival using their smartphone. After submitting a report of arrival using the app a video chat with a Customs officer will begin.

      I called U.S. Customs. The CBP ROAM app is available for use in Florida.
      In addition, the SVRS – Small Vessel Reporting System – Local Boater Option will be discontinued at some time in the future, if not soon. They are encouraging everyone, including SVRS members, to use the App now.

      The exact app name is: CBP ROAM
      Available for Android and Apple

      Create an Account at: https://secure.login.gov/sign_up/enter_email
      or from within the app.

      Important: This is a pilot version only for use in limited areas. Call your local Port of Entry for guidance.
      Note: Florida is participating.
