Hey guys,

I might be lucky enough to be in the market for a new (to me) boat soon!

Thing is, this time around, I'll probably be buying something a bit more substantial than my typical mooring minder and will probably want a survey done.

Starting to see a couple of good ones about - anyone got recommendations for surveyors in;

* Sydney
* Melbourne
* North-ish coast (like Newcastle/Port Stephens area)

Sydney;
Expect Don would be able to assist - very thorough.

Paul Burgess is also excellent, also Michael Lapin

I've used David Burn at Oyster Cove Port Stephens - he came to Lake Macquarie.

Perfect, thanks guys!

Any Melburnians got thoughts?

I am not in Melbourne but this fellow looks very solid.
