    Need Hull and Engine Surveyor in Ft Lauderdale area.

    Ran a forum search and only saw Steve Cambrick mentioned.

    Would appreciate a few more suggestions.

    Thanks

    What engines?

    What kind of boat?

    It matters as some surveyors know certain boats better than others.

    What...what? Is this survey for you? You can't keep us people on the forum updated?

    If you buy a boat soon, it means I remain king of the "longest [hatteras] boat shopper".

    Well if you must know...I'm ashamed to say it's not a Hatt. I tried - really I did. Within our budget, there were no Hatt MY's that passed the wife acceptance test. Some were real dogs.

    Then she stepped aboard a spotless 63' Viking MY and she was sold. Arguments about seakeeping, cored hulls, and technical documentation would have led nowhere.

    I'm sorry my friends,

    A customer here has a 55 viking motoryacht with the 8v92's and its a big 55. Just a bit top heavy if you ask me.

    I upgraded electronics, battery chargers and the hold and treat system.

    It has a walk in air conditioned engine room though.

    We've been on every 61 Hatt between Miami and Jensen Beach. Plus a few up north. A neighbor of Angela was one of the brokers who showed us a few boats.
