Hello All
I have been looking at buying a narrow boat for some years . I think the time is now right .
I have looked at a few boats and 40 to 50' looks good for me with a reverse layout .
There is one I have seen which I quite like the look of . The safety cert is about to run out . I would want a hull survey before committing . I am prepared to pay in full for this if all ok , but what is the etiquette if it fails ? I don't feel like handing it over for free to the owner if I walk away , but it would be nice to help out a different buyer .
Thanks Jim

Thanks for the reply
This is the boat I have looked at . The cert is about to run out , and I guess I would make it a condition of sale .

I appreciate that the survey is technically could not be transferable , but I would take into account a recent survey on a boat instructed by some one else and give me a good indication on whether to proceed . So in my mind it has value to some one .
