To make a long story short, I discovered more loose tabs in the
propane locker (in addition to the ones in the galley area), and
decided that there might be more fiberglass problems than I could
readily see. I passed on the purchase.
I'm dying to know what happened to this boat to cause these
problems. The manufacturer in question has a reputation for doing
first class work.
As they say, buyer beware.
