Pre-purchase
Surveys
Two
types of pre-purchase survey are undertaken namely the "Condition
Report" and the "Structural Report". Below is an example
of the aspects covered in the case of a GRP sailing boat.
 |
The
"Condition Report" covers comment on the hull
skin, structural members and structural bulkheads, keel and keel
fixing, rudder and steering gear, stern gear, skin fittings,
including toilets, bilge pump systems and pipework, visual
inspection of the engine, engine room and engine related equipment
(no dismantling of machinery takes place, this is not an engineers
report with compression tests, etc.), ground tackle, deck and
superstructure, below decks including joinery, linings, soft
furnishings, gas system and installation, fire extinguishers,
comment on electrics and navigation equipment (we cannot tell
whether the instruments are accurate during this kind of
inspection), rig, quality of cloth of sails (these are not laid
out for inspection) and domestic plumbing. Basically everything,
which is worthy of a comment, will receive one in this report. |
|
The
"Structural Report" covers comment on the hull
skin, all structural members and structural bulkheads, keel and
keel fixing, rudder and steering gear, stern gear, skin fittings,
seacocks etc., shroud anchorage points, engine beds, deck and
superstructure. |
