Default Anyone in Fargo, ND to verify a boat for me?

My dad is talking to a lady about a 24' chaparral he found on Craigslist. It looks to good to be true and had some weird. There is a bunch of pictures and she is willing to ship it. We just want to verify it's real before perusing it further.

Tell them that you have a good friend that is 45 minutes away and you will get him to do an inspection for you. Then see what happens

Any service records would be great as well to see any lack of maintenance and lack of repairs or any BS work or if it was really all completed and correctly
