No comment? I guess ripping people off for a "non-insurance
survey" is part of how you got rich?


The owner doesn't pay for the survey. My survey is for the yard to
determine if the boat will be allowed into brokerage. I recently took a
Hunter 43 in, but it had to pass my survey 1st. Owner does not pay for
this. Why is this hard to understand?
Three weeks ago a fellow came in with a Ericson that pinned my meter
when I ran the decks. I sounded it and even found the points where
water had got in. But the point is that I did not accept the boat into
our program. I'm not going to give away free storage on a boat we may
never sell.
My inspection covers everything from rigging, to sails and electronics.
Our shop checks the engine. On occasion I'll take the float boat or
even drive over to check a boat out that sounds promising. Sometimes I
get to sail it in with the owner. Over the past few years I've had the
pleasure of sailing quite a few boats...a nice little benefit.
