The exterior of the vessel is dirty and shows a lack of any recent cosmetic maintenance. Random percussion and electronic testing of the deck and topside areas revealed no elevated moisture or de-lamination. The vessel has been shed kept for its life. This accounts for the good structural condition considering the age of the vessel. Deck to hull joint and rubrail appear well found and in good repair. All deck hardware is stainless steel and appears properly bedded and secure. Exterior lights and navigation lights were functional. Windows and deck hatches appear well found with no evidence of major leaks or water intrusion. Cockpit and Lazzarette: The cockpit is a typical layout for a convertible style of boat. Random electronic and percussion test of the cockpit sole were negative for voids or moisture. There is some gelcoat crazing and surface scarring of a cosmetic nature. The cosmetic condition of the cockpit appears fair overall. The lazzarrette is accessed through hatches in the cockpit sole. The hatches are well found with no suspect de-lamination. All steering hardware and rudder ports appear to be in good condition. The bilges are relatively clean with no signs of major water from the through hull hardware.

Page 3 Interior: The layout of the interior is consistant with a boat of this design and has the single stateroom layout offered in this model year. The general overall appearance of the interior is fair for its age. This boat has the galley down to port layout with dinette aft with seating to starboard side. A v-bunk is forward, with one full head. The condition of the fabrics, wall coverings and upholstered surfaces are generally fair. Headliner and bulkhead materials are stained with age and wear.

Engine room and Machinery: The engines are Chrysler 360 cubic inch, 250 hp, fresh water cooled gasoline engines, installed in the straight drive, inboard configuration. These are the standard engines for this boat in this model year. The engine installation appears normal and well fitted for a vessel of this design. The condition of the engines show that at least normal maintenance has been performed when needed. All oil and transmission fluids appeared at normal levels and showed no indication of visible contamination. All belts and hoses are showing wear from age and several are in need of replacement. Engine wiring appears to be in good serviceable condition. The general overall condition of the engine room and machinery space appears to be good, with the bilges relatively clean and oil free. All seacocks are operable and the shaft logs are served by gland type packing glands that appear clean and serviceable. An inspection of the exhaust system found components on the port engine to be in good serviceable condition. The starboard exhaust system muffler is corroded and leaking. The exhaust hoses are heat cracked and are due for replacement. A check of the engine room mounted accessories found all to be well found. Fuel System: The fuel system holds 260 gallons (as per manufacturer label) in two aft mounted saddle tanks that appear properly installed and secured. The port tank was replaced several years ago. The starboard tank is original and is showing evidence of leaking. This should be addressed as soon as possible. The tanks are welded 5052 aluminum and manufacturers labels were identified. The tanks will vent outboard of the hull. All fill, feed and vent lines should be updated with alcohol resistant approved type hose. Note: As of the summer of 2006, Ethanol (alcohol) has been introduced into marine gasoline in percentages as high as 10%. Ethanol by nature attracts and blends with water and condensation, and has been found to create corrosion and deterioration of aluminum components in fuel systems. Ethanol has also been found to deteriorate the compounds found in fiberglass fuel tanks. It is recommended that fuel systems and components be inspected frequently and that the entire system be inspected by a qualified technician at least twice a year as part of normal maintenance practices Page 4 Electrical: The system is typical of those found on vessels of this design. The general overall condition of the system appears to be in good serviceable condition and in compliance with the standards established by the industry at the time of manufacture. DC: The main twelve volt batteries (2x27 series) are mounted aft centerline in the engine room and are run through safety switches. The twelve volt branch circuits are fed from the accessory electrical panel in the main salon. The circuits are protected by trip type breakers of in-line fusing that are in working order. The wiring under the bridge helm and engine room has some looe and un-terminated wiring that needs to be secured. AC: The 120 volt system is fed from 2/30 amp shore cords through main breakers in the main electrical panel. All branch circuits are protected by trip type breakers that are in operational condition. The installation of the system appears properly done using best industry practices. A check of all 120 volt appliances showed all systems to appear in serviceable condition. It would be recommended to install breakers at the shore power inlet plugs as per ABYC E-11. Other than noted the electrical systems appear to be in compliance with industry standards and practices in place at the time of manufacture. Plumbing and Mechanical: The installation of equipment and routing is consistant with vessels of this design. All components appear to be in good condition with no signs of leaking or corrosion. The water heater appears to be a newer replacement. The fresh water pump was operational. No operational checks were performed due to all systems being secured for the winter. Sanitation: Type III system with marine toilet. System appears in good serviceable condition, and in compliance with USCG regulations for inland marine sanitation systems.

Page 5 Page 6 Overview: The subject vessel is in average condition for its age but shows a lack of any recent normal mechanical maintenance. The cosmetic condition of the vessel shows a lack of recent maintenance to the exterior. The interior appears to have been recently cleaned and is in fair condition for its age. The subject vessel is powered with gas engines that appear in good condition for their age and show at least normal maintenance practices have been upheld. The boats exterior would be considered average. The interior and engine room show average condition for the age of the vessel. The port fuel tank has been replaced. The starboard tanks are showing evidence of leaking and will need to be replaced. This item should be addressed immediately for safety reasons. No operational checks of all systems and engines were conducted at this inspection. The Silverton line of boats has been around for many years and although the company went out of business due to the economic times, it is still considered to be a good dollar value boat in the mid range market for clean representations. It is the opinion of this surveyor that this vessel would pose a good insurance risk if the critical items on the findings page are addressed. Value The following are published values for the above vessel with no adjustments. Low Avg. High BUC $21,000 $26,400 The fair market value for any boat is subject to a number of variables. These variables include location, time of year, number of comparables on the market and condition of the vessel. The biggest of these variables being the condition of the vessel. The BUC scale for rating boats allows for price adjustments for condition. These adjustments range from (+10% for excellent to 50% for poor). The subject vessel is considered to be in fair condition, needing some minor structural and cosmetic work to the exterior, and would be subject to (-15%) adjustments for condition. In checking for sales of comparable boats in the local area, and advertisements in trade and over the counter journals that cover the East Coast several comparables were located. The advertised asking prices of these boats ranged from $7,500 to $24,000, and were listed as being in fair to good condition with varying condition. Several of these boats were re-powered, accounting for the wide range in pricing. Fair Market Value: Considering these factors and predicated upon there being no other significant hull/deck or mechanical problems other than those noted in this report, the estimated fair market value for this vessel in its inspected condition being sold with clear and marketable title, is established at: $ 17,500.
