in looking at the bid history for that boat.
http://offer.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBa ... 0448538756
a high bidder with no bidding history wins...and didnt show up until 3 minutes before the final bid.... a shill perhaps??
methinks someone didnt want to sell the boat that low. sad...looks like there were 2 to 3 serious bidders just before that, with real bid histories.

High resolution IR cameras with daylight modes can be worth their weight in gold,
it is amazing the resolution for picking up voids, delams, cracks and other invisible damages behind the gelcoat.
I do recommend marine surveyors in many instances also. A few times has not been worth it.

the boat to work on is in the back yard on stands...
I'll have to do the work myself....
A surveyor could just say "this is Ugly...." - I.m the one with the sander....
