X-Yacht Surveys. Are You thinking of buying a used or Brokerage X-Yacht

. We have recently surveyed examples of

X Yachts, X332, X38, X412, X99, X362, X302, IMX, X43, X35.

As with most production boats there are always useful tricks of the trade and the potential for problems and defects specific to the X-Yacht build technique, if you require any practical or technical advice on these boats or are experiencing problems please contact us as we may be able to help.

If you are looking at buying an used X- Yacht or a second hand brokerage X-Yacht we can help. Having previously worked with this manufacturer and having both sailed, cruised, repaired and surveyed many examples of the motor boats and yachts from X-Yachts we have a unique appreciation and understanding of these vessels and have developed a specialised survey technique for the X-Yachts and their build technique.

Guide to Buying a Used Boat. Used Boat Buying Process. How to Deal with Yacht Brokers.

boatcare — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 13:09:03 +0000

When you are buying a used or brokege yacht or motor boat here in the UK you may find that it can be rather hard work to spend you hard earned cash on you dream boat.

Buying any boat is a big decision and is probably the second biggest personal outlay you will ever make. It’s a major decision, and bluntly, when buying a used boat YOU’RE ON YOUR OWN.

Remember: “Buyer Beware”.

“Caveat Emptor”. The axiom or principle in commerce that the buyer alone is responsible for assessing the quality of a purchase before buying. When buying a used boat there are no warranties or guarantees. How do you know…

That the boat is even what the advert states?
That the boat is fit for the purpose?
That the boat is undamaged?
That the boat is safe, sound or seaworthy?
That the engines are serviceable?
That the rig is safe?
That the boat will provide good service without huge repair costs?
That your investment is justified; are you paying too much, or too little?

If there are problems your only recourse is pursuit of the vendor through the courts; which can be a long and costly procedure with unknown results.

Almost everyone you will deal with in choosing and selecting your boat will be working for the vendor. Brokers, advertisers, agents, agencies, the helpfull guy on the marina – are all paid buy the vendor.

If you use a broker make sure they are professional, use a recognized form of contract (for example RYA/BMIF/ABYA if in the UK) and that your deposit is secure and returnable. In the United Kingdom, look for membership of the ABYA (the Professional Association of Yacht Brokers) and or the BMIF Boat Retailers/Brokers Scheme, which ensures a high ethical standard and established code of practice, correct paperwork and indemnity insurance.
