Congrats. I know surveyors can be a PITA annoying knitpickers that are always trying to cover their ass. Your boat was in close to perfect shape when I saw it.

one other thing, pressure relief valve on water heater needs to be directed lower into the bilge so it doesn't spray on wiring if it ever goes off. 3 foot piece of pvc and an adapter

Imagine how hard it is to notice when its leaking. And don't ask me how I know. It took a while to figure that one out.

Just got the new BOAT-US policy. Of course it went up another 10% (?) but I actually read the policy this time.. If the boat is lost due to seizure, by either legal or illegal means, it aint covered. So If a bunch of pigmentally gifted individualian pirates come up here and steal it I'm out? Ill take my chances on the loss from declared or undeclared nuclear attack. BUT SHITHEADS??? ws

BigBill....ran across old post of yours on HOF about the aluminum plates in the transom for the swim platform...and your boat is a 1972. Anybody know what year they started with the aluminum plate? I doubt my 68 has them.

BUT SHITHEADS??? ws If the pigmentally gifted individualian took your boat that's theft and your covered. If the DEA seized your boat for suspicion of drug smuggling then tore it apart and found nothing then realized Bill always acts like this it has nothing to do with drugs you might be able to make a case that the seizure lacked probable cause and was illegal your still not covered.
