Not Ranked
Thanks guys. I am a big believer in investing in a survey before buying any used boat. The owner told me over the phone that someone else had comissioned a surveyor and the boat got a green light - no water intrusion into the laminate, hull, transom and stringers sound, etc. He also said he can''t email me a copy of the report because the surveyor would only release it to the person who initially hired him.
I was just hoping, I guess, for an objective go or no go from someone in the area before getting in too deep and finding out its not worth it. Its the right advice, though, and I will go ahead and source a surveyor to look it over.
