Boat deal fell thru. Turbos were leaking at the manifold gasket and owner was not willing to fix ( I believe there was a deeper issue that he did not want me to find is why he refused to have the issue resolved). We were even willing to pay the bill to have it done. Just wanted it done prior to sale and he still refused.

Still looking for a boat.

It most likely worked out for the best! Eventually you'll find the right one.

An owner not willing to make things right translates to " run ". You probably just avoided buying a hole in the water that requires massive pouring of money. We know it is disappointing, but small price to pay when considering the down side. Boat shopping is fun! Another one will come around, just like anything else. Good luck. 8-) er

You made the right call to walk away from this deal. There's a Carver out there somewhere just waiting for you to find it.
