Re: Boat purchase

These types of questions are never black and white. The answer really depends on the facts; however, it sounds like a problem. Did you ask any questions about the boat before you bought it? Do you know why it was returned previously? This could be considered supression of a material fact which is tantamount to fraud. I would be glad to discuss it with you further if you have any other questions.
