The logistics of a sea trial? Is it on a trailer near water? In the water?
It's on a trailer, but the marina doesn't have any lift facilities, so
the boat would have to be towed to the nearest ramp, which is at a
park a few miles away. I guess they figured that based on the price
they agreed upon, they didn't want the hassle of dealing with it.
Well, you can probably assume that the boat floats. I'd ask them
to start the motor, a dealership should have the wherewithal to
do that somewhere on the premises. Shift it into forward and
reverse, gun it a bit. Chances are it will be just fine.
Is there any kind of warrantee? Like thirty days or something?
