Rec for Surveyor in the Annapolis/Baltimore, MD Area

[capecodguy]

Can anybody recommend a good marine surveyor in the Annapolis/Baltimore, MD area? I am looking at a boat and would like to get a complete survey done. Experience with catamarans would be a plus!

Cape Cod Guy,

I just used David Manning for a survey on an Albin 28 in Annapolis this summer. He's excellent! When he's done, you'll know everything there is to know about the boat. I found I had to slow down, shut up, and listen because he's not the conversational sort but he sure knows his way around a boat. I ended up buying another Albin 28 that was too far away for him to survey (NJ) and he still made time to help me when I ran into problems. I can't say enough good about him, please give him a try.

Dave, Thanks. I was in a little bit of a rush so I got another surveyor. He checked out the hull today and I am good to go. Should have the boat in a week so...
