Re: Buying a Voyager 530, need survey
Max - worth a shot. He does advertise a willingness to travel on his website. Probably a timing issue and current work commitments more than anything. We are still in an above average temperature weather pattern, so that helps. Temp here is going to be 50F today! er

Re: Buying a Voyager 530, need survey
When I purchased my 530, I flew my mechanic to Florida for the survey. I'm glad I did. He found thousands of dollars' worth of issues. I was able to negotiate and get it all fixed before taking possession. If I were you, I'd make sure I had a diesel mechanic as well as a surveyor.

Re: Buying a Voyager 530, need survey
I have three options for survey at this point. Going to decide in a few weeks. Thanks for the guidance.
