SURVEY NO. xxxxx
AUGUST xx, 2013
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: This is to certify that the undersigned surveyor at the
request of xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,
attended the powerboat in and out of the water at xxxxxx Marina, xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxMaryland,
xxxxx, on the xxxx day of August in the year 2013, and did survey said vessel for xxxxxxxx,
while representing his interest as a prospective buyer.
The vessel is an Egg Harbor 33 Sedan built by Egg Harbor Yachts, mailing address P.O. Box 702,
Egg Harbor City, New Jersey, 08215, (telephone number 609-965-2300), in the year 1976, as hull
identification number xxxxxxxxxxx. The vessel’s approximate measurements are: LOA 33’0”,
BEAM 13’2”, DRAFT 2’9”, and WEIGHT 15,000 lbs. The vessel’s registration number is
MD6395CD. This particular model was in production from 1971 until 1977. Twin 270-hp engines
will cruise the Egg Harbor 33 around 15-16 knots and reach a top speed of approximately 23
knots. The current owners are xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
ALL MAJOR HULL MEMBERS, wherever accessible, together with all surfaces, joints,
bonds, fillets, webs, bulkheads, and hard curve areas were carefully inspected with particular care
being devoted to areas of normal stress concentrations and possible bulkheads or other hard spots.
Field methods of sounding and visual sighting were used. Also, the use of a moisture meter to
determine the moisture content of the hull, decks, and other areas which could retain moisture
causing damage to the vessel.
HULL CONSTRUCTION: the vessel was built on a fiberglass modified-V hull and
constructed with polyester resin and fiberglass mat. The hull’s exterior finishing is a gel coat
glazing. The decks are plywood glassed over. The main cabin and flybridge superstructure were
built with mahogany and mahogany plywood. I have noted the following:

RECOMMENDATIONS
SAFETY ITEMS AND STRUCTURAL ITEMS
a) Repair the foredeck, cabin top, and catwalks.
b) The cockpit needs to be torn up and all rotted braces need to be replaced. I would suggest
coating the new braces with epoxy and paint to suit. I would also suggest after laying the
plywood deck, lay fiberglass cloth over it. Then, if so desired, lay the teak overlay.
c) Replace rotted wood on the aft bulkhead. Replace rotted wood on the cabin sides.
d) Replace the rotted knees and supports and rotted framing in the main cabin floor.
e) Replace the flame arresters for both engines.
f) Replace all exhaust hoses and double hose clamp each end of the hoses throughout the vessel.
g) Repair leaking manifold on the inboard side of the port engine.
h) Cover positive battery cable ends on the starters of both engines. Note that there should be no
open positive connections on the engines.
i) Replace the water intake hoses for the engines and double hose clamp the intake hoses.
j) Install an additional blower for the engine compartment as required by ABYC standards.
The blower in the engine compartment needs its wires to be properly secured, ventilation
hoses properly routed and secured, and the discharge hose vented to the outside of the vessel.
Replace all ventilation hoses.
k) Replace all fuel fill hoses and double hose clamp each end. Replace the fuel feed hoses
with type A-1 hose. Replace the vent hoses and vent ports. Inspection ports need to be
installed in the cockpit coamings for easy inspection of the fuel hoses. Pressure test and
bottom sample fuel tanks. Replace the port shut off valve on the fuel tank.
l) Air conditioner pump wire connection needs to be in a junction box.
m) Relocate the master battery switch outside of the engine compartment in a dry and accessible
area.
Marine Surveyor
PAGE 22 of 26
RECOMMENDATIONS (cont.)
n) Replace the battery cables with proper color code (red for positive and black or yellow for
ground.
o) Batteries need to be properly secure and positive terminal ends need to be covered. Note that
batteries cannot sit on wood shelf.
p) Replace all gate valves with proper seacocks.
q) Install a new marine grade electrical panel and install GFI receptacles in the head and galley.
Note that any receptacle in the cockpit, engine compartment or head area will need to be GFI
with a water proof cover plate. Install a cover plate for the 120 volt receptacle located on the
starboard side of the main cabin.
r) The forward bilge pump needs to be properly secured to the hull.
s) Install fire extinguishers in the specified locations. Replace the Halon 1301 with FM 200 units.
Install smoke and carbon monoxide detectors throughout vessel.
t) Repair or replace the battery charger. Note you cannot have open 120 volt connections nor
should the 12 volt connection be exposed in a storage locker.
u) The improper wire connections need to be made with butt style wire connectors, and
loose hanging wires throughout the vessel need to be placed into harness form.
v) Install new bilge pump in the aft bilge. Install a midship pump and properly wire the forward
pump.
w) Secure the microwave or remove it from the boat.
x) Replace all navigation lights. Note that the anchor light cannot be obstructed.
Marine Surveyor

b) Remove old bottom paint and apply new barrier coat, if so desired.
c) Install new motor mounts on both engines.
d) Replace all plastic thru hull fittings above the water line.
e) Repair or replace the refrigerator.
f) Replace both cutlass bearings.
g) Replace the head and install a holding tank. Not this would be a good time to install a vacuum
flush head with a bladder tank and deck pump out port.
h) Replace both compasses.
i) Properly secure the fresh water pump.
j) Properly secure the shower sump pump unit.
k) Replace the cracked sliding window located in the main cabin on the port side.

not reaching proper rpms.
Marine Surveyor
PAGE 24 of 26
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
a) Wire brush and spray the shaft couplings with oil.
b) Align the engines once the cutlass bearings are replaced and the boat has been back in the
water for about a week.
c) Replace the transom and trim tab zincs.
SURVEYOR’S SUGGESTIONS
1) Install a teak and holly cabin sole throughout the vessel with accent oriental rugs.
2) Install white ash ceiling (hull liner) as per conversation at survey.
3) Install a 12 volt windlass.
4) Install a deck wash down pump.
5) Change to the anchor to a 35 lb. plow anchor.
6) Install dripless packing glands for the engine shafts.
7) Do away with the front cabin windows and make this section solid panels, as per conversation
at time of the survey.
8) Relocate lower steering controls to the aft deck for easy access for docking.

COMMENTS
The purchase of this vessel should be considered as a project vessel. At this time, I do not feel
that said vessel is seaworthy or safe to use.
The sea trial did not go well, and at this point, I would suggest that the engines be gone over by a
marine mechanic. At the time of the survey, we did call the factory and found that the props are
not proper, which will give improper engine rpms, as well.
CONCLUSION
The value of this vessel repaired is $26,800.00, with a replacement value $364,000.00.
