Does the survey go with the boat.

[Graham376]

Ok, so you have saved yourself a few quid by using a previous survey & purchased a boat, Your insurance company are ok with that survey.
What happens a few months down the line when you find some structural fault missed out by that survey?
And you try to make a claim?
They wil laugh at you & you wont have a leg to stand on.

The only sensible way is to pay to have the survey assigned to you at time of purchase, which most surveyors will do for a fee. Unfortunately we didn't do that with our first boat, which turned out to be an expensive mistake.
