INTRODUCTION

REPORT INTRODUCTION COMMENTS:

SUMMARY OF QUALIFICATIONS ROBERT P. GALLAGHER, AMS-E, Y, SC ACCREDITED MARINE SURVEYOR

I have more than 40 years experience in the marine service industry. I started at the bottom, sanding and painting at a boat dealership. Later I worked full time prepping new boats and performing service work on inboard-outboard and outboard engines eventually becoming a service manager. I began attending factory service schools in 1975 and remain current with industry developments by continuing to attend on an annual basis. Service programs include Mercruiser, Volvo-Penta, OMC, Crusader, Marine Power, and Volvo Auxiliary Diesels. Seminars attended have included Johnson & Towers Diesels, Detroit Diesels, Marine transmissions, wiring, fiberglass repair along with many related to hull surveying. As a member of SAMS, I am required to regularly attend seminars to keep abreast of new developments and methods in the construction and design of marine equipment. I am one of the few surveyors nationwide to have earned the “Accredited Marine Surveyor – Engines” designation by SAMS and have also been certified by ABYC as a marine electrical technician. After being a service manager for a number of marinas and boatyards in the Northeast I began my own repair business in 1984. Along with a crew of five, my business performed major and minor repairs on outboard, inboard-outboard and inboard engines, both gas and diesel. Running gear repair and alignments, hull, wiring and plumbing repairs were also performed. My personal boating experience includes the restoration of three wooden and several fiberglass powerboats. Memberships include: American Boat and Yacht Council Society of Accredited Marine Surveyors, Inc., AMS #491 E,YSC.

SURVEY STANDARDS Standards followed:

This survey was completed using as reference the federal regulations and amendments issued and enforced by the United States Coast Guard under the authority of Titles 33 and 46 of the United States Code of Federal Regulations (CFR's) in effect at the time of the survey inspection. In addition the American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) and National Fire Protection Association (NFPA-302) voluntary standards in effect at the time of the survey were used as reference. These ABYC and NFPA voluntary standard practices are generally followed by most vessel manufacturers today. 100% adherence is not guaranteed.

SURVEY INSPECTION COMMENTS Comments:

• All systems and components inspected and described herein apply only at Time of Survey and are considered serviceable and/or functional except as indicated in the survey report and listed in the Recommendations section. Electronic devices and instruments were checked for power up only - not for functionality. Areas not inspected include vessel structure areas which are covered, unexposed or inaccessible such as screwed down or false panels or bulkheads, moldings or any area that was not readily open for visual inspection. If a component is not identified in this report, it was not inspected. • It is the nature of marine vessels that deterioration, wear and accidents do occur and as such, this report therefore represents the condition of the vessel only on the date the survey was conducted. It provides no guarantee and no prediction of the vessel's condition on any later date. • "Priority I Recommendations" are related to Safety & Regulatory findings and are printed RED in the report. • "Priority II Recommendations" are related to Maintenance & Standards findings and are printed BLUE in the report. •"Other Observations" are findings that are relatively minor in nature and are printed GREEN in the report. ________________________________________________________________ • The US Power Squadron offers relatively inexpensive boating safety classes for both new and seasoned boaters and will better prepare any boater for use of a power or sailing vessel on open waters. Many Insurance companies offer premium discounts upon successful completion of these classes. Recommend that you check with your local US Power Squadron office for availability of these classes. Some of the topics covered are: Advanced Power Boat Handling Anchoring Basic Coastal Navigation Boat Handling Under Power USCG Regulations & CFR's Marine Radar How to Use a Chart

West Harbor, ME Report file #: Comm. of Massachusetts Marine Fisheries 98 South Shore 38. Surveyed by: Gallagher Marine Surveyors, Beverly MA Page no: 6 of 31

component or item was not possible due to constraints imposed upon the surveyor (e. g. no power available, behind screwed down panels, or requirements not to conduct destructive tests). • FUNCTIONAL/OPERABLE: Functions as intended. • POWERS UP: Device was tested for Power Up only, not for full design functionality. • SERVICEABLE: Sufficient for a specific requirement. • EXCELLENT CONDITION: New or like new. • GOOD CONDITION: Shows minimal wear with possible minor cosmetic discrepancies. • FAIR CONDITION: Denotes that system, component or item is functional as is with minor repairs. (MONITOR OFTEN) • POOR CONDITION: Requires repair or replacement of system, component or item to be considered fully usable.

EXTERIOR HULL & BOTTOM INSPECTION HULL EXTERIOR-SIDES Construction material:

Hand laid and molded fiberglass.

Hull cosmetics:

Hull cosmetics are in good condition-minor nicks and scratches which are typical for a vessel of this age. All moisture meter readings on side hull near the water line and surrounding thru hull fittings were relatively dry with normal comparative moisture meter readings. Solid, no cracks on external inspection. Plastic mushroom head fittings, used for: Bilge/Sump drains, Sink drains, Stainless steel mushroom for engine raw water outlet All thru hull fittings are adequately secured and sealed to hull. Rub rail is stainless steel with backing of white plastic. Fair condition with several deep gouges but remains serviceable and well secured (except where noted). Some separation on the port transom area.

Moisture/Delamination: Stem: Side thru hull fittings:

Rub rail:

Engine room vents:

Vents are attached and in good condition- no cracks sighted.

TRANSOM Transom type:

Open transom.

Moisture/Delamination:

No moisture meter readings taken due to wet hull.

Surveyed for: Massachusetts Marine Fisheries - 1996 (hull) South Shore Boat Northport, ME finished in 1998 by Marine Systems Custom Boats So. West Harbor, ME Report file #: Comm. of Massachusetts Marine Fisheries 98 South Shore 38. Surveyed by: Gallagher Marine Surveyors, Beverly MA Page no: 7 of 31

Stress cracks:

Center of transom. No delamination evidence found.

Transom thru hull fittings: All well secured and functional. Removable dive ladder. Swim/Boarding ladder:

HULL BOTTOM Construction material: Bottom paint: Stress cracks: Osmotic blistering: Blister comments:

Moisture:

Grounding damage: Strainers/Scoops/Screens:

Transducers: Thru Hull fittings: External drain plugs: Grounding plate(s):

Molded fiberglass, No cracks or separation sighted on any portion of hull bottom. Anti-fouling bottom paint in good condition. None sighted. NO evidence of blisters was found on hull bottom during bottom inspection. Blisters are an unknown factor on all boats and if not currently present, there is no guarantee that they will not appear in the future. Blisters have a tendency to dry out over winter storage unless severe or large. Blisters (if any) best appear after vessel has been in water for an entire season. In addition, the symptomatic evidence of blistering can be obscured by bottom coatings, a dry storage period during which blisters spontaneously depressurize, bottom laminate sanding, and other conditions or actions. Recommend full inspection for blisters immediately after haul-out and power wash. Surveyor has no firsthand knowledge of the history of bottom maintenance, blistering, repairs or prophylactic coatings on this vessel. Moisture meter readings not taken due to vessel bottom wet/just hauled out and wet hull/bottom paint would provide false moisture readings. Percussion hammer testing showed No apparent evidence of any delamination on hull bottom. None noted. Starboard scoop is damaged. Replace.

Transducers for speed and depth are adequately sealed and bonded to the hull. Mushroom type bronze fittings for all below water line sea cock locations. Well secured to hull bottom. Keel mounted. Well secured. Wires not connected.

KEEL Keel type: Keel condition:

West Harbor, ME Report file #: Comm. of Massachusetts Marine Fisheries 98 South Shore 38. Surveyed by: Gallagher Marine Surveyors, Beverly MA Page no: 8 of 31

Four blade bronze LH 30" diameter. Pitch or manufacturer could not be determined due to excessive prop surface corrosion which appears to be caused by stray current corrosion. The prop blades are rough and have thinned out at the outer edges. The prop key is severely pitted from the corrosion and need to be replaced. The propeller will likely require replacement. Shaft size is 2 1/2" and made of Stainless steel. Line cutters mounted on shaft. Shaft size / material: No strut. Shaft log thru shoal keel which is secure. Strut(s): Cutlass (shaft) bearing(s): Good condition. No play found in cutlass bearing, NOTE: Monitor condition of cutlass bearing(s) after each haul out and replace if play is excessive or if shaft vibrations are felt when underway. Prop(s) description:

RUDDER(S) Rudder type:

Stainless steel, Skeg hung. The lower bearing is worn allowing excessive shaft movement. The upper collar is loose allowing the upper seal to leak. The rudder shows some signs of stray current corrosion but appears to remain serviceable. RECOMMENDATION: Have rudder and rudder shaft fully inspected to be sure there is no hidden damage and correct as necessary.

ANODES Shaft:

Rudder: Hull mounted: Replacement required?: Anode notes:

None sighted on shafts. Surveyor recommends a collar anode for each shaft mounted just forward of the strut. Besides protecting the shaft from corrosion, this serves as protection from loss of shaft/prop in case of shaft coupler failure. No. Worn off. All anodes are deteriorated. RECOMMENDATION: Replace all anodes. Monitor all anodes frequently on hull and underwater equipment and replace when they are no more than 50% wasted. Anodes are normal replacement items designed to protect the running gear from electrolysis. Keep spares aboard vessel.

Bilge Pump Comments:

when switched on manually. Automatic built in float switch. Pump is equipped with a separate float switch that was tested and found fully functional. CAUTION---- Bilge pumps are high maintenance items. Bilge pumps are only the initial part of a de-watering system, which may include a strum-box, check-valves or occasionally anti-siphon loops and valves, piping, a seacock if the exit is below waterline and a thru-hull tailpiece. This entire system must be understood and maintained. Bilge pumps may fail at any time. No warranty as to longevity can be expressed or implied at survey. Tapered wooden plugs tied to seacocks are an inexpensive safety item and highly recommended under current ABYC standards. Keeping bilges clean and free of debris is a vital part of insuring proper operation. It is also recommended that each bilge pump be periodically tested by filling the immediate bilge area with water, to ensure the pump(s) and float switch(s) and or high water alarms (if equipped) are operating as designed.

GROUND TACKLE Primary anchor:

Danforth type, Sized: #22 with undetermined length of raw chain & 5/8" anchor line.

EMERGENCY LIFE RAFT Manufacturer:

Not on board.

AUXILIARY SAFETY EQUIPMENT First aid kit: Smoke detector(s):

Carbon monoxide detectors:

Deck spreader lights:

Yes and appears well equipped. None sighted. ------ Since 2004, NFPA 302-12.3 has recommended RV tested or more recently marine tested Smoke Detection devices for all vessels 26 ft (8m) or more in length with accommodation spaces intended for sleeping and is installed and maintained according to the manufacturer' s instructions. NOTE: During the burning of any of fuels, Carbon Monoxide ( CO ) gas may be created due to incomplete combustion from propulsion systems, cabin heater or stove as well as nearby boats running generators. Adequate ventilation must be provided at all times while burning any of these fuels, but CO may also be drawn into the cabin through ventilation systems. This is especially true of boats running air conditioning. Unlike smoke, CO is odorless and colorless and can't be detected by a human. CO is a silent menace and kills without warning, Regular testing of installed CO detectors in any occupied spaces below decks is highly recommended. Also, remember that CO alarms have a limited life span - five years according to most manufacturers. Check the manufacture date on the CO detectors on board and replace as recommended by the manufacturer. Yes.

INSPECTION RECOMMENDATIONS SUMMARY

PRIORITY I - SAFETY & REGULATORY RECOMMENDATIONS: (MAY BE MANDATORY) The items listed are required by state laws or federal laws and U.S.C.G. regulations or are considered by the attending surveyor to represent unsafe operating conditions. Recommend these items be corrected before next use of vessel. SCOPE OF SURVEY & GENERAL INFORMATION VESSEL INFORMATION Hull ID number (HIN): SSI38012J696. The Hull Identification No (HIN) is in agreement with the vessel's documentation information found on-line. The actual HIN was NOT sighted on the vessel. Owner is advised to verify HIN is present or inscribe the HIN permanently into the transom on the upper starboard side for Hull Identification purposes and to comply with 33 CFR Sub Part C 181.23. U.S.C.G. OFFICIAL DOCUMENTATION Documented hailing port: Gloucester, MA. The vessel hailing port on the vessel does not match the official USCG documentation sighted. This is a violation of Federal Law. RECOMMENDATION: Correct either the boat or the document so the home port displayed on the transom is an agreement with the USCG documentation. This is required to comply with 46 CFR 67.45 and to avoid potential major fines. TANKAGE / PLUMBING HOLDING TANK(S) - BLACK WATER Marine Sanitation Device: Certification Type: MSD U.S.C.G. Type III. (Holding tank). Waste tank is connected to deck waste fitting for pump out. Waste tank is also connected to an operational overboard discharge system in addition to the waste holding tank and deck pump out. This is in violation of USCG regulations for the Great Lakes and all inland waters. An operational waste overboard discharge system is illegal in Inland waters and the Great Lakes and can result in major fines. RECOMMENDATION: The overboard discharge system must be disabled. USCG regulation 33CFR 159.7 requires securing the device by one of the following methods: 1) closing the seacock and removing the handle; 2) padlocking the seacock in the closed position; 3) using a non-releasable wire-tie to hold the seacock in the closed position; or 4) locking the door to the space enclosing the toilets with a padlock or door handle key lock.

SAFETY EQUIPMENT U.S.C.G. REQUIRED Navigation lights: All Navigation running lights were tested and found fully operational unless otherwise stated. The port (red) light is not operational, RECOMMENDATION: Further investigate and repair noted Nav lights as necessary to comply with 33 USC 2020/Colregs 20 if plan to use vessel between dusk and dawn or before using vessel in limited light conditions.

(NOT NORMALLY MANDATORY) These are important maintenance items sighted which in this firm's opinion should be performed. They may also include recommendations to conform to current ABYC and NFPA-302 voluntary standards which may not have been in effect or may not have been adhered to by the builder when the vessel was constructed. Some of these, if not addressed, could lead to a Priority I safety issue and/or may result in a reduced vessel market value. EXTERIOR HULL & BOTTOM INSPECTION HULL BOTTOM Strainers/Scoops/Screens: Starboard scoop is damaged. Replace. Grounding plate(s): Well secured. Wires not connected. PROPELLER(S)/SHAFT(S) / STRUT(S) Prop(s) description: Four blade bronze LH 30" diameter. Pitch or manufacturer could not be determined due to excessive prop surface corrosion which appears to be caused by stray current corrosion. The prop blades are rough and have thinned out at the outer edges. The prop key is severely pitted from the corrosion and need to be replaced. The propeller will likely require replacement. RUDDER(S) Rudder type: Stainless steel, Skeg hung. The lower bearing is worn allowing excessive shaft movement. The upper collar is loose allowing the upper seal to leak. The rudder shows some signs of stray current corrosion but appears to remain serviceable. RECOMMENDATION: Have rudder and rudder shaft fully inspected to be sure there is no hidden damage and correct as necessary. Moisture/Delamination: ANODES Replacement required?: All anodes are deteriorated. RECOMMENDATION: Replace all anodes. TOP DECK & SUPERSTRUCTURE COCKPIT Top/superstructure: FRP hard top that is well secured. Elevated moisture readings were found around both sides of the hardtop near the grab rails. Approximately 1/3 of the port side has elevated readings. Consult fiberglass repair technicians for repair estimates. INTERIOR HULL & STRUCTURAL INSPECTION HULL INTERIOR & STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS Bulkheads: Athwart ships reinforcement enhanced by structural bulkheads bonded to the hull with FRP (fiber reinforced plastic). All tabbing appears serviceable and sound with no cracks or separation of tabbing sighted in any compartments. The port side helm station bulkhead has significant water damage causing delamination of the plywood in the upper & mid corner. Cut out damaged sections and replace as needed.
