It would be very useful if you could describe the defects. Having gone to the trouble and expense of a survey and, I imagine, a lift out that the faults were more than trivial.
I'll not go into full detail other than to say there were a couple of repairable structural faults which I regarded s non negotiable - as in I wanted the cost for rectification knocked off the price. There was also widespread osmosis which I did regard as negotiable. Other faults were all within acceptable range for a second hand boat. None of the faults were revealed in response to the "any known faults" question.
