Hey Mike whats up?
You back on the boat? I doubt the survey included any mechanical testing other than running and outside visual inspection,A mechanical is a completely separate survey most of the time and cost about the same if not more as a hull survey, If Cozzi from on the board here is still working he would be the one to hire . His wife got sick a while back so don't see him here lately I think the only leg he will have to stand on is the issue with him not informing the buyer that the hour meter is most likely incorrect as it was not functioning. |
:confused::readinghelp:The damage is done start a law suit asap!Sue both seller&inspector win lose or draw still better then the answers you'll get here!!:bsflag:

And this is why I say surveys are bs. Bring the boat to a marina or have a mechanic look at it. Sorry to here you got duped.

In any business for anything there is lack luster people and then there is the real deal. To put a broad statement out like you just did is very ignorant. |
^^ +1. The way I look at it is a survey will tell you how the boat looks. A mechanic will tell you the condition of the motors. It really takes both to make a good educated decision if your are not personally inspecting the boat.
A fellow boater had a servey done before he bought, and all the serveyer did was has have the owner start each engine. He wrote down" both engines sound good, no abnormal noises". |
Ok fine hiring a surveyor to look at a perfoance boat is a waste. Less general and ignorant for you? I can show you 4 boats that passed surveys with flying colors that I wouldn't take out on a pond. Never mind how many people have issues like this one, and the numerous customers I have that called me because the surveyor didn't know what he was looking at. Seems more ignorant to me to not conduct the inspection and tests yourself.

Where to start here...man. So now every single person buying a performance boat now should know how to preform all proper test them self and have all the tools to do so....that is what you are saying pretty much buy how you worded your statement. There are many people who survey who can complete the job as it should be done. It should be the buyers job to research that guy as well, performance boat or fishing boat. Again....your comment and especially your follow up comment are very ignorant. |
Not even going to bother.... Your such a genius. I'm just ignorant and can't see writing a check based on some one else's word.
