Wayne,, I think Dave is even worse than a boat broker ... a LAWYER!
Like we don't have enough LAWYERS? ----------------------- "Wayne.B" wrote in message ...

The process is all about buying the right boat at the right price. Virtually all sellers have an inflated view of what their boat is worth, and virtually all boats have undisclosed problems. It is your job as a buyer to bring some reality back into the picture. Unless of course, you enjoy over paying. Perhaps some people do. You were giving out bad advice in my opinion and I consider it my job to set the record straight. You sound like a dealer or broker to me. |

I'll try not to hold it against him. :-) I made the comment about Dave because he seemed to be spouting the party line from the seller side, and some people actually believe that sort of thing. Truth is, everything is negotiable and no one should ever give a deposit or sign a purchase agreement without putting the maximum amount of buyer protection into it. We had the same issue when buying a house here in Florida three years ago. The FL realtors all have a standard purchase agreement form that they want you to sign. When I read it, there was little or no protection for the buyer if the inspection report turned up a serious problem. I insisted on the same sort of verbiage that is in my boat purchase agreements, where I reserved the right to reject the house for 7 days after the inspection. They eventually agreed to my wording and it saved me the cost of a new roof. |
