Ed - Ours was just an on-land survey. No sea trial, no compressionn test. So I still think your price is very fair.

Edward R. Cozzi

I'm sorry about you overpaying for that survey. Unfortunately some surveyors have an inflated view of what their services should cost. I charge $13.00 per foot for a 38' Top Gun that is local to me. If it's an EFI engined boat, that includes a scan of the ECMs to confirm hours and to check for trouble or fault codes. I also check vital areas with a moisture meter for obvious reasons. On a buyers survey if I find something major right away I call the buyer immediately and see if he wants me to continue. I seldom charge for that service, as I find that the goodwill is better than any advertising.

You can see me in action in the thread pictures of "Someone's Getting a Cigarette for Christmas".

Ed - I'm out of the 38 now, if you happen across a good deal on a 27' or 28' Cigarette, please let me know. I've owned both in the past and I'm looking for something that's a little easier for me to trailer between Maryland and Florida. I don't mind if the boat is a little scruffy, I will probably re-do it anyway. My home phone is 410-256-2332, work is 410-234-5037.

Have a great holiday!

Barry:
If I run across anything interesting, I'll certainly contact you.

Thanks, you have a great Holiday too!

Brad wanted to pay me BEFORE I was finished! Talk about a high-quality guy.
He's no Scott Sumrall, that's for sure.
