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.
Owners CommentsWe are the seconds owners purchasing her in 2019, boat has never been chartered, maniacally maintained and continuously upgraded. She is very fast and seaworthy, set up for racing but never raced. Truly ready to go.
We consider her to be in very good condition, constantly maintained and lightly sailed during summer in Greece. Always wintered ashore.
Second owners (couple with one children), first owners elderly Swiss couple from new.
