I still don't think you are "getting it". A surveyor would have found enough of
the defects in the hull to make the case for replacing the hull.

'Would have', 'should have'. You don't know that a surveyor would have found all
the defects! He was a new boat buyer. He wasn't as 'experienced' as you are. He
didn't know it all.

When I bought my first boat I didn't know it all either. I didn't get a survey
done. Now, jump on my back for a while.

Holy ****, give the guy a break.

The "guy" has presented himself as someone who is impatient and always looking
to find the cheap way out of every situation. The best break he can get is
someone telling him he is doing it all wrong. No one would have found ALL of
the defects, but a surveyor would have found enough of them to avoid this whole
mess. Meanwhile, he is now saying that the manufacturer is taking the boat to
"repair" it. They will not find and fix all the bad spots either, The point is
that NO ONE can find ALL the bad spots in this hull because it is a total
cluster****. They can not make this hull right.

The guy doen't need a break from me. He needs to get focused and take care of
this ****ed up situation. I'm doing my best to point that out to him. Ho w are
you helping him?

Do you think that berating him for not having had a survey when he bought a new
boat is *helping* him?
