I would ask myself if this is the boat I realy want considering the
size and what not with a blind eye to the color. If the answer is
yes, then the paint is a very small issue in my mind.
I would see no reason why for that matter depending on the degree of
finish you expect that you couldnt paint the boat yourself for
hundreds rather than thousands. If you dont need a glass like finish
then a roll on finish tiped with a dry brush with a good quality
paint should look just fine and last for years.
Having said that, when I went boat shopping I used a three strikes
you're out rule. If there are other issues.......move
on..........when you find the right one she will speak to you.
