Steve — what is your port of entry? I entered via Bimini a few years back, and it was a fast and straight-forward process; just make sure you have the Q flag up, and nobody leaves the boat except the captain until all clearing-in procedures are completed. They may send someone down to do a cursory inspection and make sure you don’t have things like firearms aboard.
