Define what you need before comparing boats for sale, starting with how you plan to cruise. Include crew size, accommodation, budget and willingness to undertake maintenance. A written brief helps you distinguish essential requirements from features you would simply like to have.
Look beyond photographs when comparing candidates: condition, equipment, maintenance history and documentation deserve a structured assessment. Judge the evidence against the same brief for every boat, so an attractive presentation does not distract you from the practical requirements you have already set.
We find boats that fit your requirements and arrange viewings so you have less to organise. Before each visit, prepare questions about the candidate and allow time to inspect it. Visits planned around your practical requirements give you a stronger basis for deciding what to investigate further.
Budget for ownership as well as purchase before viewing around Port de plaisance d’Étaples-sur-Mer, including annual running costs and a refit reserve. Your brief should record intended cruising, crew size, accommodation and draught or berth limitations, plus your appetite for maintenance. Putting these requirements in writing helps you avoid irrelevant viewings before travelling. You can then compare candidates against the same practical criteria, rather than letting an attractive interior or asking price drive your choice.
Consider how your intended crew will manage the sailing boat, including sail handling and deck gear, before moving your enquiry forward.

Include the generator and onboard systems when assessing a motor boat, as well as propulsion, documented engine hours and servicing. Match realistic fuel use to your cruising plans before narrowing your shortlist. Commission an independent survey and arrange a sea trial, using them to assess condition, manoeuvring and operation so you can judge practical suitability. Judge the boat against your planned cruising requirements.
Allow for beam and its berthing implications when considering a sailing or motor catamaran. Review prior private or charter use and assess both propulsion systems.

If ownership, VAT, customs or registration is unclear, advice from a qualified adviser is needed before proceeding. We coordinate the independent survey and handle paperwork through to completion, leaving you less administration to manage. Keep the document review and independent inspection central to your buying checks.
Distinguish overdue maintenance from safety-critical defects before judging what the survey means for your purchase. Keep cosmetic work and optional improvements in separate categories, and obtain estimates where necessary. Material findings can inform whether you proceed, renegotiate or withdraw under the agreed contractual conditions. Take advice from a qualified adviser to assess your options before committing to the proposed purchase and prioritise the necessary work.
