I just need to tear one engine down. Blower, carbs and top end should be OK. I just need to bearings and crank if I'm lucky...... We'll see...... BTW, it was together and I used it toward the end of the season, just AFTER the Rendezvous PR

Since money is tight, I don't plan to do much else this winter except maintenance stuff. So no cockpit upholstery or dash stuff. It'll be back together before the season starts.

Default Survey Cafe

I am a marine surveyor (SAMS, AMS) in south Florida and I own a 1994, Cafe Racer w/540's and Bravos. I use the Cafe for charters. (yes...it is insured for charters) Great boat that handles rough water well. ...As a marine surveyor I can tell you that there are more things to look at in a survey than can be listed in this space. Rot in the transom, stringers and condition of fuel tanks is the number 1 concern with older boats. Make sure your marine surveyor is a member of SAMS (Society of Accredited Marine Surveyors) or NAMS (National Association of Marine Surveyors). Two types of SAMS surveyors SA (Surveyor Associate) is a surveyor with less than 5 years experience. AMS (Accredited Marine Surveyor) at least five years with SAMS and passed the AMS test. Many insurance and financial institutions will not accept surveys from surveyors who are not SAMS or NAMS. Hope this helps you.
