Greetings from San Diego...
In contract on a 2004 444 with Volvo 370'S.
Any advice for upcoming survey and sea trial??
Thanks in advance!

Congrats! For survey, make sure you pick the surveyor, not the seller/broker - that is a 100% non negotiable point. Regarding sea-trial, make sure it has water tanks full! and invite some friends aboard. Go to wide open throttle and then back off 10% to cruise - Volvos recommendations.
Are you having an engine survey? I always recommend that, Volvos are pricey.

Thanks very much! Yes engine survey with oil analysis. Are you E or W Canada? I get to Toronto and Vancouver on occasion. Glenn

Hey Glen, I am just outside Toronto but my 506 is on Lake Simcoe, about 1hr north of Toronto.
