Set your budget and establish any other desirables, e.g. the size, whether it is registered for charter, or if there is a designer or builder you prefer.

The length of the purchase process can vary greatly from sale to sale. There are many different factors that might influence the time to complete the process, including the amount of due diligence required and the timeframe of the seller. That said, it is very possible to complete a quick sale when the purchase is straightforward. If you have a pressing purchase deadline, please make this clear to your broker.

Before buying a yacht we highly recommend taking expert advice to gain the full picture of all that yacht ownership entails. This includes the purchase process itself, as well as information about the annual expenses and what is needed to operate a yacht each year.

This question is one of the best examples of why working with a reputable broker is highly advisable. By choosing to work with a broker you will benefit from their many years of experience and industry knowledge. This is a relationship of trust, and you can expect your broker to provide you with factual advice about the quality of a yacht you wish to purchase.

Sea trials and surveys are also a very important part of the quality control process and are the main opportunity to bring any issues that might exist to light. By the end of the purchasing process you should be going into the sale confident that you have a detailed picture about the yacht and are happy with your decision to commit to the sale.

To undertake a sea trial of a yacht, and conduct a detailed survey, a purchase agreement must be fully executed. A deposit of 10% of the agreed price must also have been paid. Your yacht broker can assist with all the sea trial and survey arrangements.

If there is a yacht you are interested in purchasing, your broker can arrange a visit on board, allowing you to experience and inspect it in-person. Your broker will arrange a viewing at a convenient time to you.

Once you have decided to purchase a yacht your broker can assist with arranging all the necessary legalities. After a formal offer is made, any negotiations will then take place and then if the seller is happy the offer will be accepted. A contract is then drawn up and will include key processes and timelines including due diligence and survey requirements. Once all conditions have been met the sale will be closed and final funds transferred.
