In response to a viewer question regarding boat purchases, Jorman advises that any buyer must haul a vessel out of the water to inspect the hull, keel, propeller, rudder, and antifouling condition.5:27 He suggests negotiating a cost-sharing agreement with the seller for the haul-out fee, which can be deducted from the final purchase price if the sale proceeds.6:27
