Actually the photos plus report from the surveyor in NC made it a lot easier. The interior condition was more than I wanted to take on. This boat has very little interior cosmetic issues. Plus rebuilding the fordecks wasn't something I wanted to do.
Thanks for taking the time to give me that first look. It helped a lot.

For our listeners out there; PB did a walkthrough of an Irwin in NC. He reported that he thought the fordecks might be soft and some interior water stains. Joel fixed me up with a local surveyor who, for $75, did a brief once-over and took pictures of the interior water stains I was concerned with. Those three people put together a picture that I preferred to pass on. Saved me the cost/time of flying down there. Been there, done that!
Hooray for Sailnet and a big thumbs up to that genious who started the boat buying thread regarding 'remote viewing'. Absolutely brilliant! He's an invaluable asset here, he needs to be given special treatment.
