I understood that you were going to keep her in Spain, J?But sadly when I come to sell you aren't going to buy the boat from me.
I'm asking because - just FYI - most of the typical Med buyers for a boat like that are very unlikely to pay a surveyor upon purchase.
As long as she looks nice and she behaves well upon sea trial of course, but that's all most folks would expect.
TBH, I'm not sure I'd pay a survey myself, even being aware of these risks, because I would think that at this ballpark boat value I'd rather keep the survey cost in my pocket, knowing that there will be reasons to spend it regardless of any survey result.
I understand that what happened might have turned you off, but just another thought along the lines of pragmatism, fwiw...
