. Pre-purchase condition & value survey.
. . The vessel was surveyed both while afloat & hauled out of the water. A sea trial was performed as part of this survey. The results are included in the Sea Trial section. There was no engine survey conducted. The mast, boom, standing and running rigging were inspected from deck level only. This inspection was completed with only the engine being commissioned. The rest of the vessel inspection was completed without testing winterized systems.
INTENT OF SURVEY: COMMENTS:
INSURANCE STATUS:
This survey is intended to report observations only. The findings should be considered prior to any agreement or purchase and used as a guideline only for obtaining cost estimates from reliable experts in the categories mentioned. No cost estimates are inferred in this document. The value of the vessel is based on market interest, in upgraded condition considering completion of the essential and recommended items, unless otherwise noted. The purchaser must consider personal experience and willingness to obtain additional information from experts regarding full discernment of the observations. Please be sure that any questions regarding the observations are made prior to your decision. The intent of this survey is for the exclusive use of the client listed only, this report is not transferable to any other person or entity. The intended users of this survey are the client and those lenders and underwriters considering financing or insuring this vessel for this client only. With full compliance of the attached essential repair list, "Summers Dream" in my opinion, will be an acceptable risk for hull underwriting purposes. With the recommended and essential repairs attended to, and the normal safety gear and precautions adhered to, she will be an able vessel for inland and coastal waters. If the vessel is going offshore for an extended cruise, significant readying and prudent seamanship must be considered.

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 Title 46 of the United States Code of Federal Regulations (CFR's). In addition, the American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) and National Fire Protection Association (NFPA-302) voluntary standards were used as reference during the survey. These ABYC and NFPA voluntary standard practices are generally followed by most vessel manufacturers today.
GENERAL PARTICULARS: COMMENTS:
• The purpose of this survey is to determine the vessel's general integrity and condition, and evaluate all accessible machinery, major structural members, hull, deck, thru-hull fittings, bulkheads, underwater machinery, bottom, plumbing, electrical and fuel systems. Also the mast, standing and running rigging, (observed by eye only at deck level), sails and steering, to establish a fair market value. • Following is a full condition/value (CVS) survey report, complete with a list of "recommended regulation compliance or repairs" (RR), "essential repairs" (ER), and items noted as "recommended service" (R), "proved" (P), "not proved" (N/P). Some highlighted items may require regular maintenance or additional attention. • Any reference to recommended service or repair outside the scope of this survey is offered as practical advice. Therefore, also included are cues for "service" or "as required". These may be part of "essential" or "recommended" categories, but are intended as practical advice. .

• It is not this surveyor's intention or responsibility to instruct the client regarding maintenance requirements during the course of the vessel's use. All requirements are noted, but not necessarily under respective categories. • This report in not meant to detail all inventory and apparatus functions. • No destructive testing or tools were used to access areas not readily visible for normal inspection. There has been no removal of gear or equipment blocking access to areas normally accessible for inspection. • The use of moisture meters is intended to create a base line or to confirm results of percussion sounding. Moisture meter readings are subject to influences that may present erroneous data. The results must be kept in perspective. 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 at the time the survey was conducted.

REQUIREMENTS AND INFORMATION THE REQUIREMENTS & INFORMATION BELOW ARE PROVIDED FOR YOUR INFORMATION AND CONSIDERATION NOTE: Hoses for marine use should be labeled with the standards classification, either SAE, Coast Guard, NMMA, ISO, UL or Lloyd’s; the manufacturer’s identification number, usage, the year manufactured plus other classifications as specified for each particular application. The construction should meet the need. Be sure that the hose ends have the same inside diameter, have satisfactory wall thickness (thin-walled hose easily kinks and has poor abrasion resistance). Be sure that hoses are reinforced with wire or synthetic yarns. Marine-rated hoses are readily available, use the best product to avoid failure. Since 1999, flexible rubber hose, bellows and elbows used in wet exhaust systems must comply with SAE J2006 standards and be so labeled. This means that the hose is temperature-rated at 593°C (1,100°F) for two minutes, the equivalent of running the engine at full power for two minutes. Hoses that circulate engine coolant water must resist kinking, heat, antifreeze and oil. A heavy-wall, two-ply rubber hose, with or without wire reinforcing, is recommended, or substitute premium automotive black heater hose or blue silicone hose, both rated to meet SAE J20 standards Gasoline and diesel fuel hoses must meet certain specifications (USCG TYPE A and B, UL 1114, SAE 1527, ABYC H-24 & H-33). They must be installed correctly and securely. Correctly sized inside diameter and fittings with crimped on ferrules, or 100% stainless steel clamps (double if possible without over lapping or beyond barb ends). Proper thread sealant on NPT threads must be used. Hoses must be safe from crushing, puncture, abrasion and kinking. They cannot be exposed to excess heat. Al fuel system hoses and piping must be inspected for leaks, damage and age deterioration regularly. A breach in a hose can flood or sink your boat. Use the best hose possible. Use only hose recommended for "below water line" connections constructed with a wire spiral helix reinforcement to prevent kinking, restriction and collapse under low pressure. A heavy wall rubber raw water hose with 2-ply and wire helix reinforcement is the best. Smooth vinyl hose with a hard PVC helix may also be used except where heat is a factor. A. Required refers to items or equipment deemed necessary by the following regulatory bodies: United States Coast Guard (USCG, National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC). The following list identifies those areas of minimum requirements for the prevention and elimination of fire and explosion, safety of life measures, adequate ventilation and exits aboard this vessel. B. Per the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, a placard stating "DISCHARGE OF OIL PROHIBITED", must be conspicuously mounted in the engine room. Secondly, according to Annex V of the "MARPOL TREATY," an international law promoting a cleaner, safer environment, a warning notice reading "NO PLASTICS OR GARBAGE DISCHARGE" must be displayed in a conspicuous area within the vessel. It is illegal for any vessel to dump plastic trash anywhere in the ocean or the navigable waters of the United States, Violation of these requirements may result in civil penalties up to $25,000 fine and punishment. State and local regulations may further restrict the disposal of garbage. (These placards are available at marine stores.) C. Extinguishers recommended for the "engine compartment" shall be located near an entrance to the compartment rather than the compartment itself. EXCEPTION, Fixed Systems such as a Halon 1301, Clean Agent suppression system or CO2, carbon dioxide must be USCG approved and must incorporate a visible or audible means outside the protected space indicating the system is charged or discharged. Systems may be manually and/or automatically discharged. The NFPA and USCG require that it shall not be necessary to travel more than half the length of the vessel to reach an extinguisher. Other rules and variables apply to engineered or pre-engineered systems installed in accordance with the USCG and NFPA installation manuals. On boats having galley stoves, one of the required extinguishers of a suitable type shall be readily accessible. D.
IGNITION PROTECTION: ***DEFINITION ONLY*** The design construction of a device, such as battery selector switch, that under operating conditions will not ignite a flammable hydrocarbon mixture surrounding the device when an ignition source causes an explosion or is incapable of releasing sufficient electrical energy to ignite a hydrocarbon mixture. The source of ignition must be hermetically sealed to prevent such occurrences. Caution: PROPANE LOCKER DRAINS: Check all propane lockers drains to insure they are unclogged, free and clear to allow liquid and accumulated propane gas to escape. E. It is the captain's obligation to ensure all safety equipment as required by the USCG is provided and aboard the vessel at all times. Please refer to the following website for more information: http://www.uscgboating.org/safety/fedreqs/equipment.htm. F.E.P.I.R.B. - "WARNING: It is unlawful to transmit a distress signal unless an emergency exits. This unit broadcasts such a signal on the international distress frequencies which alerts government monitoring stations, military, FAA, airline and Coast Guard aircraft."
