Hi, I'm new to this interesting forum.
I'm looking into buying a Halvorsen 32 Gourmet Cruiser.
Year of built is 2004.
According to the broker the boat has been built at Yardway Marine in Taiwan.
The boat is out of the water right now and the underwater hull looks solid.
However in talking with two different surveyors and also after doing some research on the internet, it seems that Halvorsen boats are more than average prone to osmosis.
Before continuing the purchase process and hiring the service of a surveyor, I would like to know if anyone on this forum has experience with the above mentioned.
I appreciate the fact that no boat has ever sunk due to osmosis; however I rather not buy a boat that is known to be prone to osmosis.
