[suziekatie27]

hello everyone

IM purchasing a boat only problem is the documents are in greek the owner said he will translate them to english spoke to broker who said they will check the documents ,
do you think i should rely on the broker checking the translation or should i get the origanal documents translated myself;
if i rely on the broker to make sure everything is correct will he or me be responsable for any mistakes
thanks for any help ,if anyone else has had the same problem i would like to hear from you and what you did .

IMHO use somebody independent of the broker as he has a vested interest.

Hi Suzie,

pleased that you've found a boat.

Independent translation is the best option. Bet there is someone here on the forums who can translate for you.
