As I have looked at boats, and also called about boats...

I have decided against some, distance/condition/price/ .. many reasons.

Thanks to all of you, I have been able to walk on .. and that is hard when
the boat looks free.

But as I spoke to a selling boat owner the other day, he in Florida, the
other coast
in Florida .. I got thinking .. it is a few hours drive across Florida, and
..

So I stumbled as I started asking relevant questions..
hull/deck/hardware/life lines.. on and on.

Later, I thought about this.. there should be a list, a check off list..
this way once the intro
is over .. "hello, I am calling about your boat for sale " .. *I would go
down the list ..

"tell me about the hull, what is the condition, painted or original gelcoat,
below water line, on an on.

Does anyone have a list of questions? * A boat buyers list?


the bloody boat is like an hour away. its not like florida is that
wide.
go look at it the phone is not gonna get the answers you want.
