Good morning
My "Admiral" and I are looking at two boats with the intention to buy one pending surveys and sea trials.
The one that catches our attention the most is in the northern US. When I asked the "broker" how do I make an offer and buy the boat at this time of year (lake is frozen solid) without a "sea trial" ????
His answer was " What do you expect to find in a sea trial" ... Giving me the impression that one isn't needed!!!!!!
So talking to a broker that makes statements like that scare me a bit .... Am I right to feel that way ...???
How DO you buy a boat at this time of year??
Should I find a broker to work for me in purchasing the boat??? Will that be difficult as the boat will only be in the low30k range or less.
Thanks as usual
Bill
