Dan, I was mistaken. It was Capt. Denny! It was a long time ago, my mind ain't what it used to be.
I know. Just trying to give you an idea of whats involved. Now you'll know not to hire some guy who just says he'll spray or fog and get rid of...
Ok. It's tough to do yourself but it wouldn't be too bad on a 54'. It takes a multi product approach. Traps, poison, and boric acid (powder). And...

How do you know?:eek:
Whoops!
Pat, I don't think I'd recommend skipping the survey. On a 26 year old boat there's a lot that can be wrong. Leaking fuel tanks, lots of rot...
