Pre-Purchase Surveys

At Killybegs Marine Surveyors, we provide pre-purchase and condition surveys for all kinds of vessels used across the marine industry.


A comprehensive marine pre-purchase survey will accurately assess the overall condition of a boat or vessel. Each survey can be personalised to check a number of criteria. Internal and external scores are closely examined for damage or functional issues, as well as the overall aesthetic or look of the vessel. A pre-purchase and condition survey can be used to determine the value of the vessel and if you are being charged a fair price. It can identify areas of concern and where repairs should be made before purchase. At Killybegs Marine Surveyors, we provide all clients with a detailed report of the survey, complete with recommendations based on our findings.


Whether you are expanding your fishing vessel fleet or a private ship-owner looking for your new boat, you can trust Killybegs Marine Surveyors to provide professional and accurate pre-purchase surveys.

Pre-Purchase Surveys FAQs

  • What is a marine pre-purchase survey?

    A pre-purchase survey is a detailed examination of vessels condition. It highlights different areas including the interior cabinet, upholstery work, superficial appearance and well as structural condition and strength. Areas of concern or damage will be highlighted.

  • Why is a pre-purchase survey necessary?

    A pre-purchase survey is not necessary but it is a good idea to have one carried out. A condition survey will tell you if you are being charged a fair price for the vessel, if it is in good working condition, if it is safe to be used, and even if you should buy the boat at all.

  • How much does a pre-purchase survey cost?

    The price of a pre-purchase survey will vary depending on the number of areas to be inspected, the location of the boat, and other changing factors. For more details and pricing information please contact Noel and Killybegs Marine Surveyors directly.
