Description

The right boat at the right price is often three states or an ocean away. Buying one you have never physically stood on multiplies every risk — here is how you do it anyway, safely.

The full process: vetting the boat on paper before you spend a dollar (documentation, HIN, owner of record, lien check), using professionals as your eyes and hands — your own independent surveyor chosen by you, a captain or mechanic to run the sea trial hard, and a buyer’s broker on your side — and protecting the money with escrow, a survey-and-sea-trial contingency, and a healthy suspicion of urgency. Plus getting her home by insured road transport or a delivery captain, arranged before closing. Ends with the long-distance trap list: every way buyers get hurt and the fix for each.

Written by working captains and brokers. Includes the full checklist. Instant download.
