Hi Group
I want to buy a high quality moisture meter to analyze my hull. What is
the
best and what should I have to pay?
Thanks
Bruce

A decent induction or capacitance type (pinless) meter for wood is going to
cost about $200 but they are not all that good for hull surveys. They only
give you a relative idea of where the wet spots are so even a basic model
will do.

A real surveyors type meter is going to cost about twice as much but really
only gives you a relative difference to some known dry area. Using one is
more of an art than a science.
