I had my '84 professionally surveyed prior to purchase sight unseen and don't regret the expense: However, it sounds as if Eugene's boat is cherry, you have reliable witness to that fact, so the survey might be a waste of money. I was able to wring an extra few bucks for the purchase out of my credit union by presenting the survey value, but not enough make a difference. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Irv Kooris" <kooris@rcn.com> To: "Montgomery_Boats" <montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Monday, July 29, 2002 9:40 PM Subject: Surveying M17 What is the general opinion of getting a 1982 M17 surveyed that appears to be in great condition this is Eugene Lodorini's boat and any recommendations for surveyor in CT.
