Not that it is completely over but:

I went through Boat US & their surveyor and I have that "Good Hands"
feeling about them AND the Boatyard.  

- the hull popped back to shape when the stand was relaxed. 
- it looks like (subject to stripping the bottom paint off & eyeballing it)
the cracking is light & on the gelcoat.  Stress cracking below the
waterline would call for a sealing coat.  I'm thinking some variety of
epoxy - advice from the list always appreciated but I won't have time to
strip & look until this weekend.  
- the Yard, Back Yard Boats in Shady Side MD, was & is a pleasure to deal
with. Susie is the Yard manager & I'll be back.  
- Contributing to the "oops" is that the 88 C&C 30 has a deceptive profile
& that bulkhead isn't where the cabin profile suggests.  (Really underlines
all the advice about marking (etc) the best sling locations.) 

-  the "un-surveyor" (Mr Wrong)  is in Annapolis & lets just say they
SURVEY things MARINE in the HARBOR... (I feel a little funny slamming
anyone, but...)

  Marine insurance companies love 
having dirt on boat yards BTW.

Hope this helps & I wish you much luck.

I assume now is not the time to divulge the names of the parties
involved... 
but would you share w/us where you are located?
