Have the boat surveyed if you are at the purchase stage, stringers and transom are the things to look at.

Looking to purchase one wouldn't have time to get survey.

Don't take offense to this, but with the boats that make awesome Great Lakes fishing boats (Penn Yan, Baha, Thompson), you'd be an idiot not to get it surveyed. The cost of the survey would probably be $400-$500, and that could save you THOUSANDS. Not to mention you can use it as a bargaining tool to lower the purchase price when you find out what needs to be fixed.

I think some insurance companies want to see a survey before they will insure it too.
