Im going to look at a large boat next week thats up for auction. I will be bidding contingent upon survey. Before I place my offer what should I look for? Such as stringer damage, ect. The low value of this craft is around 100K. Thanks for your comments. Gary
A boat that I looked at had a survey done and the stringer (starboard) is "wet". The survey said to check annually, its a 40 foot jersey. do I run now or what kind of money am I looking at to have professionaly done. And do I also have the port done? Thanks Gary
A boat I looked at came back with a wet stringer issue. It said to check annually. Its a 40 footer, do I run now? Again the issue was wet stringer not rotten. Thanks, Gary
