Four years ago I had a survey done, cost was closer to $15'/foot. ($450, 30 ft boat, twin engines, genset, etc.) $40 quoted above seems high. Worth every penny to me and a fair deal resulted for buyer and seller. Also paid lift fees to do bottom and running gear inspection. Money well spent. OTOH, if a single engine boat, no plumbing, a/c, other systems, I might just settle for a sea trial and maybe a compression check.
