Capability is scored for both standards from the same design research, re-weighted. The money is not: a coastal refit has to be costed on its own, which is why it can read “not analysed” above while the score beside it is real.

$602k of uncertainty sits behind 25 unanswered questions.

Answer from the top: these are ordered by how much each one would narrow the range, not by how they occurred to anyone.

  • Has the integral holding tank, its bond to the hull/collision bulkhead, or any fuel/water tank ever cracked, delaminated, leaked or been repaired, and can you provide invoices/photos?

    This model has documented vent-related structural tank failures; repair can be invasive and economically decisive.

    worth $70kask ownerPlumbing, water tanks and heads
  • Can the surveyor inspect and test every tank vent and screen, the holding-tank boundaries and adjacent hull structure, and confirm the actual holding-tank capacity?

    It directly tests the model's highest-consequence known failure mode and resolves the 20/40/110gal contradiction.

    worth $70kask surveyorPlumbing, water tanks and heads
  • Provide every prior survey, haul-out invoice, blister treatment, laminate repair, moisture report and bottom photo available.

    It can reveal or retire major hidden hull, keel and rudder risks before paying for a new survey.

    worth $45kask brokerHull and laminate
  • Has the boat ever grounded, struck a log/rock or needed repair to the keel leading edge, skeg, rudder or internal grid?

    Encapsulated ballast avoids keel bolts but makes hidden impact and laminate damage the central keel risk.

    worth $45kask ownerKeel and keel bolts
  • Does hull 1124119 have Caliber's later larger, fully through-bolted chainplate deck plates, and in what production year was that change introduced?

    It determines how directly the documented 1997 sistership leakage detail applies to this 2002 hull.

    worth $35kask class associationDeck, hardware and hull–deck joint
  • Can the surveyor expose the chainplate/bulkhead interfaces, inspect for corrosion and water staining, and moisture-map the deck core around every penetration?

    Clean structure can retire a large risk; hidden core or bulkhead damage can require invasive structural work.

    worth $35kask surveyorDeck, hardware and hull–deck joint
  • Provide the engine/transmission nameplate photos, serials, complete service log and invoices for the last 10 years, including valves, injectors, mounts, exhaust elbow, heat exchanger, hoses, impeller and transmission oil.

    The 2,874-hour engine may be excellent or may need five figures of deferred maintenance or repair; the listing does not identify even the exact model.

    worth $32kask ownerEngine
  • When were all standing-rigging wires, terminals, chainplates, turnbuckles, forestays and furlers replaced or serviced, and are there itemized invoices?

    Documented recent work could retire a roughly $19,000 expected refit line and reduce delivery risk.

    worth $30kask brokerStanding rigging
  • List every included sail with maker, material, build date, recut/repair history and most recent sailmaker condition report; specifically confirm the staysail and spinnaker are included.

    Current sails could be serviceable or require a roughly $15,000-$30,000 replacement of the main working inventory.

    worth $30kask brokerSails
  • Provide annual charter days, engine-hour history, all charter damage reports, groundings, collisions, insurance claims and fleet-maintenance work orders since the boat entered charter service.

    Charter use is not automatically bad, but undisclosed utilization and incident history can move condition and value by tens of thousands.

    worth $30kask ownerInterior and sea berths
  • During haul-out, can the surveyor moisture-map and sound the rudder, inspect the skeg shoe and stock, and measure play at all three supports?

    It distinguishes a robust intact system from a $4,000-$28,000 rudder/skeg repair.

    worth $28kask surveyorRudder and bearings
  • What are the material, age and service dates for every seacock, through-hull and sanitation hose, and are all below-waterline hoses double-clamped and accessible?

    A full replacement campaign is an insurer/sinking-risk item and can cost five figures on a two-head boat.

    worth $18kask surveyorThrough-hulls and seacocks
  • Which hatches, ports and deck fittings leak or have been rebedded/replaced, and will the seller permit a controlled hose test and moisture mapping?

    Numerous aging openings can hide core damage and a $1,500-$18,000 repair spread.

    worth $18kask brokerWindows, hatches and ports
  • What transmission model, shaft seal, propeller and cutless bearing are fitted, when were they last serviced, and is there any vibration, leakage or delayed shifting?

    It collapses a $2,000-$16,000 drivetrain uncertainty and determines delivery readiness.

    worth $16kask ownerShaft, coupling, prop, stern gland
  • List exact model numbers and installation dates for both plotters, radar, VHF, depth/wind/speed instruments, AIS, NMEA network and every autopilot component, including the drive unit.

    Legacy Raytheon/Raymarine documentation is contradictory; exact models decide which central catalogue lines can be zeroed and what must be replaced.

    worth $15kask brokerElectronics and navigation
  • When can the boat be released from existing charter contracts, and does the $149,900 sale include all listed charter inventory without revenue-share, management or damage-fee obligations?

    The listing warns of existing charter contracts; timing or retained-equipment obligations could conflict with a November/December 2026 purchase and delivery plan.

    worth $15kask brokerInterior and sea berths
  • What are the exact alternator, smart-regulator, inverter/charger and battery-monitor models, outputs and installation dates, and is there a current wiring diagram?

    The manual's generic 'high output' labels are insufficient to assess compatibility with the planned lithium/solar refit or to credit central equipment lines.

    worth $12kask ownerElectrical, AC and DC
  • How many house/start batteries are installed, with chemistry, brand, Ah capacity, build/install date and recent load-test results?

    It determines whether any existing bank has transitional value and exposes charging-system assumptions before delivery.

    worth $10kask brokerBattery bank
  • When were halyards, sheets, reefing/furling lines, traveler controls and lazy jacks replaced, and which lines show glazing, cover damage or core exposure?

    Condition can retire or confirm a $4,000-$9,500 charter-wear renewal line.

    worth $10kask riggerRunning rigging
  • Physically identify and weigh both anchors and measure chain length, diameter and grade; explain the 45lb CQR versus 44kg plow and 30kg Danforth inventory entries.

    The records are internally inconsistent and could falsely zero several thousand dollars of central ground-tackle cost.

    worth $9kask surveyorGround tackle and windlass
  • What are the build dates and condition of the dodger, bimini, windows, frames, stitching and covers, and are there leaks or torn fasteners?

    Charter-service canvas can look acceptable in photos while being near a $3,000-$8,000 replacement.

    worth $8kask ownerCanvas, dodger and covers
  • What make/model, age and service history is the windlass, what chain gypsy is fitted, and will it retrieve the full rode repeatedly under load?

    A functioning coastal windlass is not automatically reliable offshore; model and load testing determine whether it earns catalogue credit.

    worth $7kask surveyorGround tackle and windlass
  • Are the 10ft Achilles RIB and Honda 2.3hp included free of charter-fleet claims, and what are their model years, tube/floor condition, outboard hours and service records?

    It determines whether the RIB earns catalogue credit and whether either item has meaningful resale or delivery value.

    worth $6kask brokerDinghy and outboard
  • Can the class association or Caliber brokerage provide the 2002 factory brochure, owner's manual, build sheet and any service bulletins for USCG documentation number 1124119?

    The available official specification is from 2008 and may silently misstate equipment or production details on a 2002 hull.

    worth $5kask class associationHull and laminate
  • Why is the freshwater-tank gauge still described as nonfunctioning, what diagnosis has been done, and is repair included before sale?

    The defect is confirmed but could be a $500 sender or a multi-thousand-dollar access/monitoring problem.
