Pre purchase yacht survey

The Pre - Purchase Condition Survey

A comprehensive and detailed 37 section report covers all aspects of the hull (including moisture readings on GRP hulls and Utrasonic testing on steel), fittings, rig, and equipment,

The practical part of the survey in usually completed in a day and an overview can be given at the end of the day, with the report following a couple of days later. If problems are found on the vessel, these can be discussed early on and recommendations made as to the next course of action.
