Purchase Support
Yes. As part of its buyer representation, California Yacht Sales can provide resources for financing, insurance, and finding a slip, along with helping coordinate surveys and the purchase process.
Discuss your needs with your broker early so these arrangements can be considered before completing your purchase.
Surveys & Inspections
A marine survey is an independent assessment of a boat. The report identifies the vessel and reviews its construction, equipment, electronics, safety equipment, electrical systems, fuel systems, and other relevant features. The process also includes hauling the boat out so the surveyor can inspect its bottom.
Surveys commonly include recommendations for repairs or maintenance. California Yacht Sales can provide a list of surveyors accredited through NAMS or SAMS. Your insurer or lender may also require a survey.
Yes. A mechanical or engine survey is a separate report focused on the boat’s propulsion systems. It can review the engines, fuel and oil systems, exhaust, cooling systems, alarms, and transmissions. Depending on the engine and inspection, it may also include compression testing.
Your broker can help coordinate the marine survey and mechanical inspection as part of the purchase process. Learn more on our Buyer Info page.
Viewings & Sea Trials
Contact California Yacht Sales to discuss the boats that interest you and schedule a viewing with a broker. Our team can help you compare options and arrange visits to suitable listings.
Call 619-295-9669 or use the inquiry form on the boat listing to get started.
A sea trial is part of the purchase process and gives you an opportunity to observe how the boat handles underway and test its systems. It is generally arranged through your broker as part of an offer and the agreed purchase contingencies, rather than as a same-day test drive during an initial viewing.
Your broker can explain the timing and requirements for the boat you are considering. See our Buyer Info page for an overview of the process.
