Yacht & Powercraft Surveys

SURVEYS

Pre-purchase and insurance surveys include inspection of all normally accessible parts of the boat.

The vessel is normally required to be lifted or dried out to gain access to the outside of the hull, keel, stern gear etc. The structural part of the survey will differ with the hull material, but the internal structure and systems, such as gas and electrics, are carried out in a similar manner whatever the construction method.

Fuel, gas and electrical systems have the potential to be a significant safety issue, and all accessible parts are given a thorough inspection.
