Yes, a survey is always property of whoever paid for it, in this case the buyer.
I be had tides on a boats i ve run as well as on my personal 53 Hatteras. Pretty much trouble free. If they drip a little it s often because of...
Personally I don’t trust Pex and much prefer copper. And yea, Sharkbyte is the way to go. I redid my all the plumbing in my boat about 5 years...
Cat ha s this is their electronic controls. Tap the up or down button and move RPM up by 50 RPM per tap all sync’s. not that useful
At this point of everything else is clean, an aging electronic issue is no big deal. Try to get the seller to have it fixed or request a token...
It takes more than 20 seconds to replace a fuse since you have to get to your spare box, check the rating etc. No downside to breakers. I don’t...

I leave the LEDs on at all time.
Never had issues with fenders on painted hulls. Paints like Awlgrip, Imron, Alexseal are as tough as gel coat. In a typical slip, with pilings...
