I appreciate all the replies. I'd definitely tell a few of you that you can take your boat and stick up where it won't fit. For me it's all about transparency. Why wouldn't you if possible answer some questions? Do you have something to hide or just arrogant? Most of the questions are just asking if and when something has been done so I can gauge when or if it needs to be done now or later. I'm not rich like some of you seem to be and yes God forbid I'm a newbie.
You want all that info, lemme hand the potential buyer the maintenance log and tell the buyer, “what you don’t see, ask and I will give you an approximate date “
You have obviously never dated a divorced woman or bought a previously owned house or car.
Next you will want a years guarantee and a full tank of fuel or gasoline.
I just might be able to answer all or most of your questions and when you started to haggle about the price, I would tell you to leave in words you will have no trouble understanding, “I will not sell my boat and get off my boat NOW!”
You want transparency, hang on tight, I want know a few things about you. Boating schools, the source of the money, your work history, police record, ever had a speeding ticket, arrested for DUI, smoked drugs, shot up drugs, bring proof of insurability, ever declared bankruptcy, and and tell me about the last 12 arguments you had with wife and or girlfriend.
I predict if you bring your list of questions to an owner(s), you will be a boatless newbie for a very long time. You only option is to oder a new boat and pester the builder.
Now, I am being perhaps more honest than other boat owners.
Oh, by the way, you are not permitted to remove any of my logs or printed material from my boat.
