In ALVEA Yachts we strongly believe that unless you are very confident in your own knowledge of yacht construction and maintenance, it is generally wise to employ a marine surveyor to report on the yacht prior to completing a purchase.

The objective of a surveyor is to identify and examine a yacht's condition, in order to assist the new buyer in his final decision in the purchase of a used yacht. A survey is recommended if you are buying a second hand yacht, if you are having your new yacht handed over after delivery, or in case you have your yacht returned after the end of contract with a Yacht Charter Company.

In general, the survey is carried out in three parts: In water inspection, sea trial then lift ashore of the yacht followed by out of water inspection.
