No.
Now understand that I'm not saying 100-150 is bad. I'm just not in
agreement that it is undoubtedly a consolation.
IMO The way the surveyor wrote up the anchor locker gave credibility to his
knowledge and skills. If he had no comments about the deck then that would
be a consolation.
It is
Would your opinion change based on the fact that the boat's been on the hard

The deck is a different thickness and layup so by themselves numbers of
100-150 are just as irrelevant. Now if the entire deck read 100-150 with
NO peaks around deck penetrations then that would be consoling
information. Then again if the wide open flat portions consistently read
100 but the pene
As a consulation the deck was completely dry with readings between 100 and 150!

Thanks Josh. Figured as much.
They're selling for such a low price that I think it is reflected.

You can't make anything of it. The meter gives a comparison to the areas
nearby. You could ask the seller to perform the recommended temporary
repair. If there is any moisture you will certainly find it, and rotted

The survey suggested the bottom was wet (199 and anove) with readings from 250
to 450.
Not sure what to make of this in a boat that is almost 35 years old.

I would still suggest that he did not find delamination but rather wet

look on the inside and above the indicated area. There is likely a water

There's no visible signs. He was taking moisture readings in the 200 to 225
range and registered delamination based on the hammer test. The boat well
priced so it doesn't change much for me.

I would second guess the surveyor. At least dig a little deeper and
determine what his indicators are. Moisture meters are broad go/no-go
tests that help focus one's attention. They can easily indicate the
presence of moisture as a result of water in the bilge, or even places
where a wet rope wa
I’ve had no issues with delamination at the bow of my 1983 Landfall 35. When I
bought the boat several years back, we discovered moisture on deck just around
the anchor locker but nothing below. It is very easy for the anchor locker
drain to become clogged with mud and debris, so it is best to
