Choose the type of boat

Sailing yacht fitted with safety equipment

Sailing boats

Consider how your intended crew will manage the sailing boat, including sail handling and deck gear, before pursuing the purchase. Inspect rig and sail condition alongside the auxiliary engine, and check draught against your plans. Commission an independent survey and arrange a sea trial to evaluate condition and handling, rather than relying on presentation alone. Keep your intended cruising and crew needs central.

Motor boat under way at sea

Motor boats

Review documented engine hours and servicing before judging a motor boat’s suitability for your plans. Assess propulsion, the generator and onboard systems, and consider realistic fuel use alongside your intended cruising. An independent survey should support your condition assessment. Use a sea trial to evaluate manoeuvring and operation in practice, so you can compare beyond appearances. Judge the boat against your planned cruising requirements.

Sailing catamaran on the water

Catamarans

Assess twin propulsion systems as part of a sailing or motor catamaran’s overall suitability, alongside prior private or charter use. Commission an independent surveyor with relevant expertise to inspect structure and bridge-deck. Check beam against your berthing plans, and arrange a sea trial to assess practical handling. This gives your comparison more than visual impressions alone. Keep your intended use central to the assessment.

How we check a boat

Arrange an independent survey when assessing a purchase around Port Béziers-Méditerranée (Valras-Plage), so condition receives an independent examination. Review maintenance evidence, arrange haul-out where the boat’s type or age calls for it, and use a sea trial to assess handling and operation in practice.

Verify seller identity and authority to sell, then review title and registration documents in the context of the transaction. These checks address ownership as well as the proposed transfer. The exact checks depend on the boat, the flag, the ownership history and the transaction, making transaction specific scrutiny appropriate.

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 part of your purchase assessment.

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 evaluate the contractual position before committing to the proposed purchase and prioritise the necessary work.

Costs, documents and transfer of ownership

Budget for the whole acquisition before committing to a purchase, including the independent survey and haul-out where required. Set aside provision for registration, insurance, berth or storage and delivery, alongside immediate maintenance and a refit reserve. This gives you a broader cost assessment than the asking price alone.

Review title evidence and registration documents before completion, and assess the VAT or customs position where relevant. Requirements and costs vary with the boat, the flag, the ownership structure and the jurisdiction. Where ownership, VAT, customs or registration is unclear, you need advice from a qualified adviser before proceeding.

Keep purchase expenses separate from the work and arrangements needed after transfer, so you can compare the complete commitment. Consider delivery, insurance, berthing or storage, immediate maintenance and your refit reserve as distinct categories. We handle paperwork to completion, giving you less administration to manage while you assess the purchase against your plans.

Buyer's checklist

  • Prepare your buying brief and total budget before planning inspections.
  • Record accommodation and technical requirements for the boat’s intended use.
  • Review ownership and title documentation before committing to the transaction.
  • Evaluate maintenance history against the boat’s condition and your requirements.
  • Request an independent survey to assess the boat’s technical condition.
  • Plan a sea trial to assess handling and practical operation.
  • Confirm completion conditions in writing before progressing the purchase.
