Hi
im in the process of buying an 8 year old widebeam. The boat was blacked last year by the current owner, I’m buying the boat as a live aboard with the proceeds from the sale of my house, which will take 4 to 6 weeks. Unfortunately finding an available dry dock to have a survey done is proving problematic as there is either a waiting list to use a dry dock or others are too far away. Time is of the essence as i will only be able to pay for the boat after the sale of my house goes through. If I don’t move in board straight away i will be homeless with two dogs! What is your advice? Should i get a survey or not?
