| Video Discription | Looking to buy a used sailboat but don't know what to look for? Do you want to understand some basic things to watch out for in order to pre-qualify or eliminate sailboats from your want-to-buy list? We have you covered. Veteran surveyor, Jim, is here to walk us through all the things he would watch out for based on his 40+ years of experience surveying thousands of boats. We take a look at sailboat propellers, max props, two-bladed props, three-bladed props, cutlass bearings, zincs, line cutters and prop shaft struts... and Jim helps us understand what to look for when buying a used sailboat. His knowledge is immense and this is Part 1 in a multi-part series about things you can pay attention to when buying a used sailboat. Part 2 will cover rudders, keels, thru-hulls, bottom paint, and other critical things for buyers to take note of before getting serious and calling a surveyor. ====== Curious about Jim's Moisture Meter? check it out here https://www.amazon.com/Protimeter-BLD5765-Non-Invasive-Moisture-Display/dp/B00GS2CZZW?&_encoding=UTF8&tag=yachthunters-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=dd5a66ac894bf2635125f742f403f855&camp=1789&creative=9325 [that's an affiliate link] ============== Support us ============== Like what we're doing & want to help??
