Boat appraisals are not as extensive as purchase surveys, insurance surveys, or financing surveys.  A appraisal will consist of inspection of the vessel for obvious defects, or outstanding repairs.  An appraisal establishes the condition of the vessel.  Once the condition of the vessel is established a retail price is placed on that vessel.

The retail price of a vessel will often vary, sometimes as much as 50% depending upon the condition of the vessel.

bulletAppraisal surveys are often used when boats are donated.  The appraisal survey is an important part of IRS documentation.

bulletAppraisals surveys are often requested prior to placement of a boat on the market.  This survey will establish the approximate value of the vessel and will usually indicate at what price the vessel will sell.  Many boat owners will consult a surveyor prior to selling a vessel in order to obtain the best selling price.  Surveyors often have suggestions on selling a boat.

Appraisals surveys are generally about 10 typewritten pages.  The cost will sometimes vary depending on the size of the boat.  See our section on surveyor fees for more detailed information on the cost of appraisals. 

Please See the sections on What We Do for details on what this type of survey will encompass.
