The Pre Purchase Survey is a comprehensive inspection of the boat. The survey of a typical vessel may require a full day, depending on the defects discovered. The prospective buyer is welcome to attend the survey if they wish to get a better understanding of the findings.

The Pre-Purchase Survey (sometimes called a Full Condition Survey) is the most comprehensive type of boat survey available and we strongly advise you order one when purchasing a used vessel. After all when you buy a boat you want to get as much information about it as possible before closing the deal. You'll want to know if the boat is structurally sound and if it's safe, if the equipment and machinery are in good working order and ultimately if it is good value for money. If you tell us what you want the boat for we can also advise on whether this is the right boat for you. We want you to have this information so you know exactly what you are buying and can be confident in your purchase.

As part of our Pre-Purchase Surveys we recommend and include a Sea Trial. This allows us to examine fully the overall condition and performance of the vessel and in particular to examine the Engine and Mechanical systems.
