Default Dunk is the Man

I have used Dunk in the past and did a great job for me. I am very comfortable recommending him to anyone. He is a frequent contributor here on THT also.

While it won't guarantee anything, I think finding someone who is NAMS or SAMS certified is a good start. Provides a base-level certification that is generally well-respected.

Then, talk to locals to find out who the "blind" ones are and who the fair, realistic ones are (not necessarily the perpetual "deal-killer" types). Once you ask around the local area, the good ones will surface.

I was very happy with John Spencer. However, I have outboards and had my marine mechanic inspect the motors. I don't know if John can survey the diesels.

Bill Gross He is Nams and Sams. It might be hard trying to get a good surveyor in NJ right now. Most of the ones that are worth their weight will be doing insurance claimes

John Spencer,

I talked with him this morning. He's busy but very local to you so he might be able to slide you in quick.

Dunk is the man you want. Very knowledgable and very professional. He has surveyed both my Tiara's. He will answer your questions years after the survey as well. Bob.
