Thanks buddy, much appreciated. I know what you mean about the ten posts. When I first joined I couldn't post any pics or attachments of anything until I had ten posts..... |

I've been doing a lot of reading, studying and watching a lot of videos on what to to look out for, inspect and ask when buying a boat, and I'm definitely going to get a professional survey done on whatever I get. I appreciate you sharing this. I am hot to get one but I'm going to wait until late winter, early spring before I buy because I want to be able to have enough money saved up to buy something cash and not have to sweat the price. I don't want to rush into what looks to be a cheap buy, only to get myself into a nightmare. I know that the really nice examples with low hours that were very well maintained in excellent shape are not going to be cheap, and that's ok. To me these boats look a lot hotter than many of the newer style boast out today. Thanks again...... |

No problem, i just happened to be looking at both of these threads after work and it was a really bizarre coincidence and felt i had to post it up. I have no connection to this boat so i don't know anything about it. The seller did say in the cobalt thread that he wasn't planning on selling it until spring so who knows maybe the timing will work out for you. Anyway good luck! I was 15 in 89" so i really get the attraction to these vintage machines. You mentioned a Seebold Eagle in your original post as one you liked and that 26' Seebold is the one that gets me. If i ever come across a prime example of one i may have to pop for it! Anyway good luck in your search. |

Those survey's are hit and miss, mostly miss. You'd be better off hiring a fiberglass expert and a mechanic to look at it.
Something about a surveyor won't be able to detect moister in certain areas unless they have a certain meter. Anyway, great advice and I will take it much appreciated...... |
