Agreed. We also had a Triton with about 50 years of local experience. He kicked us badly - if he was in sight at the end, we lost. I think some of the older boats which were rated years ago (252 here) have an advantage with new technology which wasn't available when they were rated (think inboar

Typically you make your offer contingent on survey. That can be as detailed as you like; hull survey, engine survey, and you can add sea trials to test systems. You are making the offer. If the owner accepts your offer, the full price would be expected unless the survey finds things wrong. Once

In the states, everybody uses the YBAA form for offers. The selling broker can provide the form. Putting a survey as a condition is bog standard. I've had it included on boats where I didn't even end up doing a survey. I wouldn't expect a ton of movement on price as a result of a survey. With
