Well, it looks like I've successfully transmitted the boating bug
to my father and brother. Since our restoration of Delilah they
have been taking about maybe buying another boat. Something
bigger that we can do overnights on is the size their thinking.

On Friday we're going to go look at a 33 footer in the Boston
(North Shore) area. So, anyone know of a surveyor in the
area? Also, what should we expect to pay for a survey of
a 33 foot wooden boat, single engine?

$10/foot. And thats just a hull survey. Then throw in a mechanical survey.
And when all is said and done you will realize you have nothing more than
you could have done yourself and worth as much. Of course insurance will
require it anyway.

Very knowledgable. I used his services when I was looking at a 28
ft. Topaz and he did a terrific job - personable and fun to work with.

Later,
