The recommendations should be listed in the order of their importance as they effect operational safety Recommendations Recommendations prior to launch: Ensure that a complete Coast Guard Safety and Signaling Package is aboard. Install backup ground tackle. The engine room fire extinguishers should be inspected and tagged. Have the yard check the rubber exhaust components. Protect batteries from shorting. Photo E on Page 5 Have the yard service the rusted steering gear, Photo C on Page 5. Have the yard determine cause of transom deteriorating from electrolytic action around the swim platform supports. Photo D on Page 5. Have the yard service bonding system terminals, all are in need of replacement. Clean propellers and rudders and apply new zincs. Determine the cause of the extreme electrolysis to overboard components and install a device to prevent this action. Recommendations at next haul out: Install isolation transformer. Clean the top of the fuel tank and apply rust preventative. Have the yard check Photos A & B on Page 7. Determine substances, the causes, and remove and repair de-lamination. Repair the fish door. Conclusion and value This survey can not be construed to guarantee or warrant the condition or operational condition of the vessel as a (in water test) was not conducted. This vessel is in overall good structural condition. According to the BucBook data and current market condition research data compiled, I feel the value would be approximately $65,500.00 in todays market once the recommendations repairs are completed and the “In the water test” verifying engines and gear operation is satisfactory. Replacement of this vessel with new would require an investment of approximately $123,000.00. Cordially, Certified Marine Surveyor JC/pam go back to Page 1 Page 7 of 7 go back to Requirements page
