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.

Owners Message
“We have spent 15 years with our boat and it was wonderful, very safe and comfortable but age is catching up with us and we want to stop before we are too old.

Our cruising has taken us many places (Douro, Guadiana, Guadalquiver) rivers and many locks through France, Belgium and Holland as wells coastal sea. In Europe we left Greece to cruise Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, west coast of France and back to Holland. Then via the Rhein, Danube, Black Sea, Turkey and back to Greece again.

In all this time we have felt incredibly safe and the boat has the power to look after us. We wish the next owner to be as happy as we have been on her, she has become our friend.”
