Fellow Ericson lovers,
I live in Southern California (santa Barbara) and I am in the middle of a purchase of a 1976 Ericson 29 from Longbeach, CA, and I urgently need a surveyor who understands this kind of boat and vintage, who will know what to look for (eg, rotten balsa-core decks etc.) I need the survey for slip and insurance as well as peace of mind.
Does anyone know of such a surveyor in this area?
I am pretty conviced that the boat has been very well maintained, but even so, with a boat of this vintage, I will need a list of things that are beginning to show stress, so that I can start working on them and getting parts etc., for the coming months and years.
Thank you for any help with finding a good surveyor in this area!
Cheers
Duncan
