I just got a new cruising permit a few weeks ago in Key West when we came in from Mexico.
Somewhat surprisingly, it was no trouble whatsoever. Although my boat is registered and I've had US cruising permits in the past so all my info was already in their system. We can bitch about it for a while more, but really it might just make sense to go and register your boat. If you are going to travel internationally, it probably makes life easier in the long run. I've cleared Bojangles in and out of about 20 countries /Territories and have yet to have problems anywhere other than the south side of Lake Ontario.
