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.

Item	Cost estimate	Probability	Priority	Product	What and why	Range	Notes
	$6,450
Expose, inspect and dye-penetrant test the chainplates and their belowdecks attachment bolts, and re-bed the deck penetrations	$5,000 $0$18k	85%$4,250 weighted into totals	blocks	—	—	$3k–$10k	Cruising World names chainplate and attachment-bolt corrosion as a Vancouver 42 issue; new standing rigging does not prove lower-end chainplates were removed or tested.
Independent rig survey and documentation of the post-2022 standing rigging, including mast climb and terminal inspection	$2,200 $0$7k	100% certain	blocks	—	—	$1k–$4k	Standing rigging is listed as replaced since 2022, but the rigger, invoice, wire specification and terminal inspection are not supplied in the listing.
	$1,700
Inspect the deck-stepped mast step, compression post and partners; check the diamond stay terminals at the upper spreaders	$2,000 $0$9k	85%$1,700 weighted into totals	blocks	—	—	$800–$5k	Model is deck-stepped with unusual diamond stay; mast wiring and standing rigging were replaced since 2022 but the listing does not say mast was unstepped or mast step inspected.
	$2,925
Renew halyards, sheets and control lines; strip and service the Profurl headsail furler, the lazy jacks and all winches	$4,500 $0$15k	65%$2,925 weighted into totals	blocks	—	—	$3k–$8k	Winches were replaced since 2022, lowering that part of the line; halyards, sheets, control lines, Profurl furler and lazy jacks are undated.
	$1,170
Add a third reef and offshore chafe reinforcement to the 2022 Precision Sails mainsail; recut or reinforce as the loft advises for trade-wind work	$1,800 $0$7k	65%$1,170 weighted into totals	—	—	—	$800–$4k	The listing's older sail spec says two reef points; it does not state whether the 2022 Precision main was built with a third reef or offshore chafe patches.
	$6,300
Twenty-six-year service on the original Yanmar 4JH3-TE: heat exchanger, exhaust mixing elbow, turbocharger inspection, injectors, hoses, impeller, belts, alignment	$7,000 $0$26k	90%$6,300 weighted into totals	blocks	—	—	$4k–$14k	The engine is year 2000 with 2,000 hours; listing claims new mounts and fuel polishing but no turbo, heat-exchanger, exhaust-elbow or injector service history.
	$1,650
Cutless bearing, shaft, propeller and Yanmar KM-series transmission service	$3,000 $0$12k	55%$1,650 weighted into totals	blocks	—	—	$2k–$7k	Direct drive, new PSS seal and new motor mounts are good evidence; cutless bearing, shaft, coupling and transmission service are not dated.
	$2,000
Open, clean and pressure-test both diesel tanks; add inspection ports, a polishing circuit and dual primary filtration	$5,000 $0$18k	40%$2,000 weighted into totals	—	—	—	$3k–$10k	The listing now says fuel tanks have been polished/cleaned and includes a Racor 500; capacity/material conflict remains, and there is no date, invoice or explanation for the 54gal aluminum tank.
	$2,975
Audit and remediate the 2022 lithium, inverter and alternator installation to ABYC standard	$3,500 $0$14k	85%$2,975 weighted into totals	blocks	—	—	$2k–$8k	Lithium bank, Victron inverter/charger, 160A alternator and 1,100W solar are listed, but BMS, fusing, regulator, shunt, solar controllers and installer are not.
	$2,080
Strip, inspect and re-cable the pedestal steering; service the rudder bearing; fit and sea-trial the emergency tiller	$2,600 $0$10k	80%$2,080 weighted into totals	blocks	—	—	$1k–$6k	Pedestal steering and emergency tiller are listed but undated and absent from the 2021-22 refit block; at departure the steering gear will be about 27 years old unless records show otherwise.
	$4,125
Haul out, moisture-survey the hull, strip and renew the bottom with barrier coat and antifoul	$7,500 $0$24k	55%$4,125 weighted into totals	blocks	—	—	$4k–$13k	No bottom-job date, barrier-coat history or haulout photos are listed; post-1992 vinylester materially lowers blister concern, so this is conditional on bottom condition and paint life.
	$6,025
Moisture survey of the cored deck, then pull and re-bed all deck hardware, stanchion bases, hardtop and solar mounts, and chainplate deck seals	$8,500 $0$29k	45%$3,825 weighted into totals	blocks	—	—	$4k–$16k	The deck is cored and has 2022 hardtop/solar/stanchion penetrations, but molded non-skid instead of teak deck and no active leaks are listed. This line is conditional on survey moisture or movement findings.
Replace 2022 vinyl-coated lifelines with uncoated 1x19 stainless double lifelines	$2,200 $0$8k	100% certain	blocks	—	—	$1k–$4k	Listing states vinyl-covered double lifelines; the generic catalogue line is not marked aboard because vinyl coating hides corrosion and is not the offshore baseline.
	$2,100
Replace all seacocks and through-hull fittings, and fit soft plugs at every skin fitting	$6,000 $0$20k	35%$2,100 weighted into totals	blocks	—	—	$3k–$11k	Listing says seacocks exist on all through-hulls but gives no material, age or operation; reference guidance does not justify blanket replacement unless survey finds seized, pink, cracked, gate-valve or unsupported fittings.
	$2,100
Pressure-test the two 60-gallon stainless water tanks, renew potable and waste hoses, service the holding tank and add a manual freshwater backup	$2,800 $0$11k	75%$2,100 weighted into totals	—	—	—	$1k–$6k	Water tanks are stainless and original unless shown otherwise; aft-head plumbing and water heater were replaced since 2022, reducing but not eliminating old-tank/old-hose risk.

	$4,650
Service or replace the Grunert 12VDC refrigeration serving both boxes	$4,000 $0$15k	60%$2,400 weighted into totals	—	—	—	$2k–$8k	Grunert refrigerator/freezer is listed but not included in the 2021-22 refit block; age, refrigerant and compressor data plate are unknown.
