I. INTRODUCTION
SCOPE OF SURVEY
Acting at the request of John Q. Client, the attending surveyor conducted an in the water Re-Insurance Marine Survey of the "S.S. Minnow" a 1990 42' Gibson Houseboat, on July 2nd at 11:00 A.M. through 2:30 P.M. where she was docked at Lakeshore Marina, 2285 Highway 321, Hampton, TN 37658. The weather was warm with temperatures in the high eighties. At the time of survey the "S.S. Minnow" was having window tinting installed so interior pictures will be somewhat cluttered. The vessel's registration was available and viewed. The Hull Identification Number (HIN) GBN42907E090 was able to be verified on the transom. Neither a sea trial nor an out of the water inspection of underwater machinery and the exterior of the hulls wetted surface area was performed. The owner of the vessel was not present at time of the survey. The reason for the survey, was to ascertain the physical condition and value of the vessel for John Q. Client for insurance renewal. AC and DC power was used to check the operation of the electrical systems specified in this report only. Electronic equipment was checked for ''power up'' only. No reference or information should be construed to indicate evaluation of the internal condition of the engines or the propulsion system's operating capacity. This vessel was surveyed without removal of any parts, including fittings, tacked carpet, screwed or nailed boards, anchors and chain, fixed partitions, instruments, clothing, spare parts and miscellaneous materials in the bilges and lockers, or other fixed or semi-fixed items. Locked compartments or otherwise inaccessible areas would also preclude inspection. The owner is advised to open up all such areas for further inspection. Further, no determination of stability characteristics or inherent structural integrity has been made and no opinion is expressed with respect thereto. This survey report represents the condition of the vessel on the above dates, and is not to be considered an inventory or a warranty either specified or implied. CONDUCT OF SURVEY: THE MANDATORY STANDARDS PROMULGATED BY THE UNITED STATES COAST GUARD (USCG), UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF TITLE 46 UNITED STATES CODE (USC); TITLE 33 AND TITLE 46, CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS (CFR), AND THE VOLUNTARY STANDARDS AND RECOMMENDED PRACTICES DEVELOPED BY THE AMERICAN BOAT AND YACHT COUNCIL (ABYC) AND THE NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION ASSOCIATION (NFPA) HAVE BEEN USED AS GUIDELINES IN THE CONDUCT OF THIS SURVEY. Any moisture readings taken and referenced within the body of the report, were taken with a Ryobi Moisture meter. The use of the word ''appears'' is intended to indicate that a close or complete inspection was not possible or it was not deemed appropriate at the time of this survey. The deficiencies reported herein reflect the conditions observed at the time the survey was conducted. Use of asterisks * in the body of the report will indicate that a finding will be listed in the Findings and Recommendations section pertaining to the asterisked item, following the body of the report. Where installation of double hose clamps are recommended throughout this report, it is understood that double clamps should only be installed where there is sufficient length of tailpiece / pipe available and hose length overlap to allow correct installation. No clamp shall be installed closer than 1/4" to the end of the hose and must fully engage the tailpiece / pipe or fitting. Any clamp extending over the end may cause the hose to be cut internally or force the hose off the fitting and is an incorrect installation.
VESSEL DESCRIPTION
The "S.S. Minnow" is a 1990 42' Gibson houseboat powered by a Volvo-Penta 250 engine. She has a fiberglass modified Vee hull with a white gelcoat and superstructure with blue trim. Outside amenities for the vessel include a shaded bench seat area forward of the superstructure. A sun deck atop the superstructure and at the stern where there is an aluminum swim platform mounted to the transom. The "S.S. Minnow"'s galley, head and entertainment area are located amidships in a bi-level arrangement. She normally sleeps up to five people, with two in the after portion of the main salon and three more in the cuddy cabin towards the bow. On the interior she is appointed with walnut paneling and light grey pile carpeting throughout.

Deficiencies noted under ''SAFETY'' should be addressed before vessel is next underway. These findings represent an endangermentto personnel and/or the vessel's safe and proper operating condition. Findings may also be in violation of U.S.C.G. regulations. Findings noted under ''OTHER FINDINGS '' should be corrected in the near future so as to maintain standards and to help the vessel to retain it's value. Findings will be listed under the appropriate heading: A. B. C. SAFETY DEFICIENCIES OTHER FINDINGS NEEDING ATTENTION SURVEYORS NOTES AND OBSERVATIONS

STATEMENT OF VALUATION:
1. The ''FAIR MARKET VALUE'' is the most probable price in terms of money which a vessel should bring in a competitive and open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller, each acting prudently, knowledgeably and assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby: a. Buyer and seller are typically motivated. b. Both parties are well informed or well advised, and each acting in what they consider their own best interest. c. A reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market. d. Payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; and e. The price represents a normal consideration for the vessel sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale. BUC.com was used to determine the FAIR MARKET VALUE (FMV) of the "S.S. Minnow". A query was submitted to BUC.com for boats matching the description 1990 Gibson 42 Houseboat with a single Volvo 250 I/O engine in Average (BUC) Condition. Therefore, after consideration of the reliability of the data, the extent of the necessary adjustments and condition of the vessel as detailed by BUC, it is your surveyor's opinion that the ''FAIR MARKET VALUE'' of the "S.S. Minnow" is: $34,300 Thirty Four Thousand Three Hundred Dollars 2. The ''ESTIMATEDREPLACEMENT COST'' indicates the retail cost of a new vessel of the same make/model with similar equipment offered by the same manufacturer. ''ESTIMATEDREPLACEMENT COST'' of the subject vessel is: $154,000 One Hundred Fifty Four Thousand Dollars
SUMMARY:
In accordance with the request for a marine survey of the "S.S. Minnow" for the purpose of evaluating its present condition and estimating its Fair Market Value and Replacement Cost, I herewith submit my conclusion based on the preceding report. The subject vessel was personally inspected by the undersigned on July 02, 2012 and was found to be a well constructed vessel. It is being well maintained and is in average condition at this time. The area of rot noted at the transom must be repaired quickly in
