Buying a Voyager 530, need survey

[Max Sand]

Well, I did it. Put an offer on a Carver Voyager 530 and it was accepted. I'm looking for a surveyor who is up on the Voyager model line. Prefer in the mid-west but can be any location if they are willing to travel.

I did a pretty good inspection but didn't test anything yet as the boat is up dry, and no power to anything.

May I suggest a diesel engine mechanical survey as well, with a performance sea trial when comes the time....good luck with this adventure.

Any help on finding a Survey guy?

Mid-west or anywhere else? FL? East coast?

What part of the Mid-west? That is a pretty big area. I may have someone for you, but he is not going to venture too far from my area. Doesn't have to, has plenty of work. I believe he worked for Carver for a while also, so that's a plus. er

Boat is in Stillwater MN on the St Croix. Pls send his info along, maybe he'll make a trip just for me. hahaha

That's really not that far from Green Bay. You might have to pay for an overnight stay, but that might not add that much for a good survey for that large of a vessel!

Name is Rich Reichelsdorfer. email is rich@marineproservice.com 920-889-0758 If he doesn't want to travel that far, he can at least point you in some direction. He did not work for Carver in the past. Good luck! er

Excellent, thanks. I'll reach out, see what his situation is this spring.

Have you checked with any local marinas or boatyards?
