Page 18 of 30"Infinity" surveyed by Marine1 Surveying, LLC - Marietta, GA 30068
B. OTHER DEFICIENCIES NEEDING ATTENTION:
FINDINGS RECOMMENDATIONS
B.9 (PAGE 14) OBSERVATIONS:
The water temperature instrument readings recorded
are 100 degrees F at idle, 110 degrees F at cruising
speed, and 120 degrees F at maximum throttle.
Appears vessel is operating cooler than designed, It is
the surveyor's opinion that the operating
temperature would be around 160 degrees F for a
V-8. The oil, temp, and volt gauges are cloudy.
If vessel continues to run at cooler operating
temperatures, have a qualified marine mechanic
investigate for removed or stuck open thermostat, or
improperly functioning gauge. A lens restorer kit
could be used on the cloudy gauges if deemed
necessary.
C. SURVEYOR'S NOTES AND OBSERVATIONS:
FINDINGS RECOMMENDATIONS
C.1 (PAGE 5) EXTERIOR HULL:
The port topsides has two (2) gouges, approximately
three (3) inches each, on the amidships area. Owner
states that he will repair these two (2) gouges. The
black boot stripe is worn along a majority of the
bottom edge throughout and two (2) spots, on the
port side, are worn the for most of the thickness of
the stripe. The gelcoat on the starboard side sheer
line, located in the area below port lights, is dull for an
estimated area of two (2) feet. Owner states that this
was due to the removal of a decal and not a repair.
Follow up with owner on the repair of the two (2)
gouges to the gelcoat on the port side. Consideration
should be given to wax and buff the dull area on the
starboard side and to repair boot stripe for aesthetic
purposes when convenient.
C.2 (PAGE 5) TRANSOM:
Transom accessory storage locker, needs to be
cleaned on the inside and pneumatic cylinder is
non-operable. The swim platform has two (2)
noticeable chipped and gouged areas to the gelcoat
along the edge and rub rail is marked from rubbing.
The owner states he will repair the noted gelcoat
areas on the edge of swim platform.
Clean inside transom locker and renew pneumatic
cylinder. Follow up with owner on the gelcoat repairs
to the swim platform.
C.3 (PAGE 5) BILGE:
Engine space bilge is a gray gelcoat and it is dirty with
oil/fluid residue and has an estimated one (1) inch of
water.
Clean and dry bilge. Oil should be contained and
disposed of properly. Federal Water Pollution Act
prohibits the discharge of oil into or upon the
navigable waters of the United States. The engine
space should be monitored every time aboard vessel
to monitor for water and machinery fluid leaks.
C.4 (PAGE 5) CHAIN LOCKER (DRAINAGE):
Standing water sighted at the chain locker hatch drain
and locker drain.
Check drains for blockage, clear and flush with water.
