Hello,

Not only would I walk away from the boat, I would try to recover the cost of the survey. When I bought my boat, the contract had language that stipulated if the deal did not go through due to the owner''s fault, I got back my deposit, plus any money I paid for the survey.

I think this qualifies as the owner''s fault, since the yard was working for him.

Good luck,

Barry
