Osmotic blistering: NO evidence of blisters was found on hull bottom during bottom inspection.
Blister Comments: Blisters are an unknown factor on all boats and if not currently present, there is no
guarantee that they will not appear in the future. Blisters have a tendency to dry
out over winter storage unless severe or large. Blisters (if any) best appear after
vessel has been in water for an entire season. In addition, the symptomatic
evidence of blistering can be obscured by bottom coatings, a dry storage period
during which blisters spontaneously depressurize, bottom laminate sanding, and
other conditions or actions. Recommend full inspection for blisters immediately
after haul-out and power wash. Surveyor has no firsthand knowledge of the history
of bottom maintenance, blistering, repairs or prophylactic coatings on this vessel.

initial part of a de-watering system, which may include a strum-box, check-valves
or occasionally anti-siphon loops and valves, piping, a seacock if the exit is below
waterline and a thru-hull tailpiece. This entire system must be understood and
maintained. Bilge pumps may fail at any time. No warranty as to longevity can be
expressed or implied at survey. Tapered wooden plugs tied to seacocks are an
inexpensive safety item and highly recommended under current ABYC standards.
Keeping bilges clean and free of debris is a vital part of insuring proper operation.
It is also recommended that each bilge pump be periodically tested by filling the
immediate bilge area with water, to ensure the pump(s) and float switch(s) are
operating as designed.

AUXILIARY SAFETY EQUIPMENT
Sundancer 55
Carbon Monoxide
Detectors:
Three First Alert detectors are located in the main salon, master stateroom and
guest stateroom.
NOTE: During the burning of any of fuels, Carbon Monoxide ( CO ) gas may be
created due to incomplete combustion from propulsion systems, cabin heater or
stove as well as nearby boats running generators. Adequate ventilation must be
provided at all times while burning any of these fuels, but CO may also be drawn
into the cabin through ventilation systems. This is especially true of boats running
air conditioning. CO is a silent menace and kills without warning, Regular testing
of installed CO detectors in any occupied spaces below decks is highly
recommended.

INSPECTION RECOMMENDATIONS SUMMARY
PRIORITY I - SAFETY & REGULATORY RECOMMENDATIONS:
(MAY BE MANDATORY)
The items listed are required by state laws or federal laws and U.S.C.G. regulations or are considered by the
attending surveyor to represent unsafe operating conditions. Recommend these items be corrected before next use
of vessel.
U.S.C.G. REQUIRED
Findings: A copy of the Inland Navigational Rules was not sighted as required for vessels over 39'4" (12M) or longer.
Recommendations: Obtain a copy of the Inland Navigation Rules and be familiar with it's contents. Keep rule book on board vessel to
comply with USCG regulations and to avoid a potential fine.
AUXILIARY SAFETY EQUIPMENT
Findings: Life raft certification has expired.
Recommendations: The life raft will need to be re certified before use.
PRIORITY II - MAINTENANCE & STANDARDS RELATED RECOMMENDATIONS:
(NOT NORMALLY MANDATORY)
These are important maintenance items sighted which in this firm's opinion should be performed. They may also
include recommendations to conform to current ABYC and NFPA-302 voluntary standards which may not have
been in effect or may not have been adhered to by the builder when the vessel was constructed. Some of these, if
not addressed, could lead to a Priority I safety issue and/or may result in a reduced vessel market value.
OTHER OBSERVATIONS:
These are other less significant maintenance items or observations that if not addressed, could lead to more
important priority issues and/or could lead to a reduced vessel market value. The cost of addressing these
recommendations is generally minimal.
HULL BOTTOM
Findings: Minor areas of flaking bottom paint noted. The starboard engine intake screen is bent and should be monitored
for water intake restriction.
Recommendations: Remove loose flaking paint, spot sand areas and touch up peeling/flaking areas prior to next launch. Replace
starboard engine intake screen if required.

CONDITION & VALUE REPORT SUMMARY
DECLARATION:
Rating of vessel condition was determined upon completion and review of all reported survey information including
recommendations and comparing vessel to the same or similar age models. Possible vessel condition ratings are as
follows:
EXCELLENT - Essentially as new or bristol in appearance.
ABOVE AVERAGE - Has had above average care with no obvious defects or limitations.
AVERAGE - Ready for sale but needs some maintenance or repairs, updates or cleaning.
BELOW AVERAGE - Needs significant maintenance, repair or service.
Estimated fair market value was determined by cross referencing data from Soldboats.com, BUC, ABOS, NADA,
Powerboat Guide and other brokerage listings or local dealers. Adjustments are then made for condition or
equipment as necessary. The fair market value is for the vessel in it's current condition prior to any repairs or
maintenance.
Estimated replacement cost was determined using information obtained from BUC, ABOS or local dealer prices
using the same or similar make and model with similar equipment options.
