What if I had something really valuable in the they break it due to a mistake or bad judgement?

A friend of mine crossed the border into the US on the water a few years ago. He was with 4 other guys heading down to the July 4th fireworks at Roche Harbor. 1 or 2 year old 45' Searay. Very nice boat. They were on their way to the boat customs port to check in.
About a mile into US waters they were stopped and boarded by a customs boat. At gunpoint they were searched and then removed from the boat. After a search of the boat and an interrogation of all aboard, they were released and the boat was returned. It was trashed. Carpets torn up, cabinets dislodged, cushions sliced open etc... My friend asked who was going to pay for the damage. A customs agent said, "Send the bill to 1700 Pennsylvania Avenue."
