I guess I am from the old school where my word is my bond. Funny , that used to mean something instead of "just the money" Just take note, If I ever post anything for sale, you can purchase with confidence.

No way I would make a major purchase without looking at it with my own eyes. Oh well.

" Jeez Barnaby, I don' think that is the issue. The issue is perception. Everyone's definition of mint is different, and if I was going to spend $11,000 (a low number for a Seacraft) I would damn sure want to see what I was buying,

I somewhat agree with you as far as looking before buying. HOWEVER, The seller says "Mint"..O.K. we know he is selling, Then JT says "Mint", Now are they related? But a survey that was paid? Is it not his "job" to accurately describe all flaws?. You are right. If its my $11K spent, I'm looking. However with a Paid Surveyer involved, I expect an accurate report...Tight Lines Capt.

When describing a 25 year old boat, does mint possibly mean a slightly different thing than describing a two year old boat?
I once had a 1977 SeaCraft that most on this site would consider to be in great condition. However, someone only accustomed to viewing boats that had just come out of the mold might see small cosmetic things that bothered them on it. Should we first establish what the term "mint" means when used in conjunction with Potter era boats, which are by definition at least 23 years old?? Did the surveyor knowingly take into account the age of this boat and say that it was in great condition compared to other 25 year old boats or was the survey saying that this boat was comparable to a new boat?
