The condition or level of safety equipment on board is not to be negotiated on following survey. It is likely to be listed by most surveyors but is not structural or an integral working part of the vessel and is not to be used to further negotiate the price down after survey. We strongly suggest that for your own personal safety that when purchasing a yacht you provide new safety equipment rather than relying on second hand gear.

Should you become the new owner of this yacht then the responsibility to re-register or update official bodies for items such as EPIRB, VHF, MMSI, or AIS becomes yours.

Comments

In this ownership, the yacht has sailed primarily in the Ionian with one season in the Aegean.

The Raymarine electronics were replaced in 2022 following nearby EMF/lightning (in the vicinity of the yacht but lightning did not strike the yacht). All equipment covered by insurance and professionally installed.
