ABSOLUTELY! Any offer that I make would be contingent on the boat being relaunched,
and passing a sea trial with a genuine surveyor.
As for the engine
Yup, I plan to check both the engine and transmission oil, and the belts, and look for a spare impeller.
Also, I will give an overall look at the interior plumbing for cracked / broken hoses, and to see that there is antifreeze in the system.
Thanks already!
