Surveyor recommendations, Sea-Tac

[Tuttouomo]

Still in the negotiating stages, and not yet at a final agreement on a boat purchase. But we are getting closer.
So, in order to keep moving forward I need some recommendations on a professional surveyor in the Seattle-Tacoma area. Anybody out there that would have some one that they would strongly recommend , I would be greatful for the contact info.

Thanks, Bill

It would be helpful to know what brand of boat you are looking to buy because some surveyors have more expertise with particular brands than others. There are some good surveyors in the area. Are you getting a hull only survey at do you want a mechanical survey too. If yes to both, what engines are on board the potential boat as that can determine who you might want to go with too.
