Topic: How to complete private sale?
I am about to put in an offer on a 1975 CO26 through a private sale in Ontario. Boat looks OK to my amateur eye, other than a number of small dimples in the gelcoat below the water line, but I feel pressured into closing without a marine survey (time of year doesn't permit sea trial either). Seller is warning that a couple of others are also interested. He has agreed to take me out when the boat is back in the water and show me the ropes. He says everthing works fine, and the diesel (6.6 Petter) has been overhauled and works great. Your advice/thoughts please!
And finally, what is needed to close a private sale?
