Capt. Nautis

Maritime intelligence · NAUTICARES

Capt. Nautis is the byline NAUTICARES uses for its maritime notes. The three published notes cover pre-purchase surveys, refit planning and pre-season preparation.

What to ask before a pre-purchase survey

Buying a yacht

You have found a yacht you like. Before arranging the survey, establish which questions the inspection can answer. Access, sea trials and maintenance records all affect what you can learn from the findings.

Prepare for the discussion

These articles focus on the information to share with a specialist and the questions to discuss when defining an assignment. Vessel-specific technical assessment, manufacturer instructions and authorised inspections should be handled by the relevant professionals.

Apply the questions to your own project.

Share the situation of your yacht, facility or project and the issue you want to clarify.
