A Complete Guide to Professional Boat Survey and Pre Purchase Inspection Services in Turkey and Worldwide
Purchasing a yacht, whether a sailing boat, motor yacht, gulet, or catamaran, is a serious decision that involves significant financial and emotional commitment. To protect your investment and ensure safety on the water, a professional survey is essential before any purchase.
At Esta Yachting, we provide detailed pre-purchase boat survey services in Turkey and across key yachting regions including Italy, Greece, Spain, France, Croatia, Montenegro, the United States, Panama, and the Caribbean. Our certified experts carry out comprehensive technical inspections on a wide variety of vessels—new or second-hand, wooden or composite, personal or commercial.
Our survey services include thorough hull inspections, deck condition analysis, engine and transmission testing, shaft and propeller evaluations, electronic equipment checks, generator and air conditioning tests, electrical system reviews, autopilot and navigation system testing, as well as moisture readings and osmosis testing. We also inspect the rigging, sails, masts, and keel on sailing vessels.
Every survey concludes with a detailed, impartial report that outlines the vessel’s structural integrity, system functionality, and overall seaworthiness. Our reports are trusted by banks, insurers, registrars, and buyers worldwide.
Esta Yachting offers tailored surveys based on the vessel’s age, structure, location, and intended use. Whether you’re buying locally or importing a boat into Turkey, our surveys provide you with the confidence to negotiate fairly and avoid unexpected repair costs after the purchase.
For those selling their boats, having a professional pre-sale survey increases transparency and helps attract serious buyers.
With years of international experience and deep industry knowledge, Esta Yachting ensures that each survey is performed with precision, neutrality, and strict adherence to global maritime standards. Our mission is to provide every client with peace of mind and technical clarity during one of the most important decisions they’ll make on the water.
