==Check-in facilities at Buenos Aires==
 
Clearing in to Buenos Aires is relatively simple,  but needs some leg work and must be completed within 24 hours of arrival. You need to take, not only your passports, ship's papers and clearance from your last port but also a letter from the marina ( Pto Madera or YCA) stating that your yacht is indeed in the port.

From there it is recommended to take a taxi ( which should cost less than 20 pesos) to the office of Direccion General de Aduanas to get your Certificado de Admision Temporal. Despite the grand name this is a small building in a rather dodgy neighbourhood at Av. Pedro de Mendoza 1544 at the far end of Puerto Madero. This is only a short walk from the Boca tourist precinct. A regular bus can be taken back to town  for the grand price of 1.25 pesos.
