Important Thing to Think About…
Completing a comprehensive marine survey on a new or pre-owned boat grants you, the prospective buyer, a valuable strategic edge. It enables you to negotiate the purchase price or address any necessary repairs or restoration work before finalizing the transaction. This frequently leads to substantial savings, often reaching thousands of dollars, which commonly surpass the survey’s expenses. Additionally, the information and findings gathered during the survey hold considerable significance for a new owner.
