The condition or level of safety equipment on board is not to be negotiated on following survey. It is likely to be listed by most surveyors but is not structural or an integral working part of the vessel and is not to be used to further negotiate the price down after survey. We strongly suggest that for your own personal safety that when purchasing a yacht you provide new safety equipment rather than relying on second hand gear.

Should you become the new owner of this yacht then the responsibility to re-register or update official bodies for items such as EPIRB, VHF, MMSI or AIS becomes yours.

Surveyor summary from 2012

“The above vessel was found to be in a satisfactory condition overall with only minor issues found. I would like to make note that in my option the yacht has not only been built to a very high standard of construction with more than adequate scantlings; but it has been maintained meticulously throughout its lifetime and is a fine reflection of the care and knowledge of the builder/owners. I have no doubt that if the recommendations noted able were carried out the yacht would be of excellent value and give many years of future service”
