Annapolis surveyors for unstayed rigs

Hi all,
Bonafide new blood here, but would like to give my business to anyone with a reputation for some knowledge of composites and CF, and honesty. We're in need of a surveyor for a Freedom 39, which involves carbon unstayed masts, cored hull, and a fairly old Perkins.
Realize it's a tall order, but figured we'd ask here before exercising google-** as my forum searches failed me.

Cheers
SA

So many boats, so little time.

Re: Annapolis surveyors for unstayed rigs

This is the man for Freedom Yachts in your area:
Meet Paul Dennis, Freedom Guru Meet Paul Dennis, Our Freedom Guru

He was a production manager at Tillotson-Pearson, the builder of Freedoms, and now has a boatyard in Rhode Island specializing in the care and maintenance of same. He may not do surveys, but in that case, likely to know who to consider.

Plus he's your resource post-purchase.
And nice choice! F39 is a sweet yacht. Watch for Steadyhand to chime in. Or Gamayun, who single handed hers to Hawaii and back.

Re: Annapolis surveyors for unstayed rigs

Thanks td0tz,
That's interesting to know. Didn't think there'd be a specialty yard for these boats. I'll definitely ping Paul for a referral if he knows anyone down further south.

I like the 39 very much, I feel like it was quite ahead of its time!
