Re: Need Hull and Engine Surveyor in Ft Lauderdale area.
Let's put this rumor of lack of financing for older boats to rest.
We got approved in 2 days. Choice of 10 years @ 4.75% or 12 years at 5.6%.

Re: Need Hull and Engine Surveyor in Ft Lauderdale area.
Jack Dibelle did my engine survey [CATS 3406, Northern Lights 20, 12 kw gens.] I'd use him again. Mark Slakoff did my hull and vessel survey; thought they did a good job and were quite helpful while on board, but thought the report was kinda light as there were no photos; first survey that I've had with no photos. Otherwise, no qualms.

Re: Need Hull and Engine Surveyor in Ft Lauderdale area.
I like the 63's but most I see are 12-71's. best thing about them to me is the nice stairway to the flybridge, something I think Hatteras really missed. I surveyed one here in San Diego with a great enclosed aft deck, but no stabilizers, beautiful boat , massive owners cabin. Congrats I am sure you will enjoy it. John

Re: Need Hull and Engine Surveyor in Ft Lauderdale area.
Sad phone call this morning.
Based on comments here. Called Mark Slakoff. Due to schedule conflict, Mark was going to send his partner, Bill Bartosch.
Spoke to Bill 2 days ago and had a great conversation on Vikings and Hatteras. I knew I hired the right guy for next weeks survey.
Got a call this morning from Mark. Bill died suddenly from a heart attack yesterday.
Damn,
I only shared this here because Bill knew of HOF and it's great contributors .

Re: Need Hull and Engine Surveyor in Ft Lauderdale area.
Other than the hull coring issues I would have the surveyor check the stringers very closely as there were some problems with broken stringers on these Vikings.
Slakoff is the best if you're buying, you don't want him there if you're selling.
