You are right, but they are hard to sell. My deal just fell through today after weeks of work thanks to a surveyor that didn't know what she was looking at. This is the third time that I have had it sold and the deal fell through due to financing. This recent guy was only financing part of the money, but thanks to the surveyor he cannot get what he needs. Anyhow, I have a few other people that claimed to want it when we were in Key West, so I am going to e-mail them to see if they are ready to jump or if they are full of sh*t. Here we go again!

That sucks. I've never been so frustrated by a boat........until it comes time to buy or sell one.

Sorry to hear that.
I don't know what your buyers' surveyor objected to but here is one problem area that I have encountered; There are only a few surveyors who understand the differences between fiberglass and Kevlar / Carbon Fiber. Kevlar will give a higher moisture meter reading than fiberglass and many surveyors will conclude that there has been water intrusion.
I have asked a surveyor to speak with McManus regarding the build process and normal readings before they reach conclusions and write their report. I have also flown a trusted surveyor to inspect a boat.
Best wishes with your sale ...
