Having bought a new boat, you might expect everything on board to function perfectly. However, our experience shows that this is rarely the case.

It is not always easy for a new owner to test the boat and all of her equipment in a simple "hand over" procedure. Does the radar work properly ? Do the engines perform to their specification ? Are the hatches water-tight ?

The sooner the "built in" faults can be identified, the sooner they can be rectified by the boat 
builder or the company responsible for the fitting out.

We can assist you by providing our "New Commissioning" survey. We will test the function of 
all of the equipment in port and during a sea trial, and report the results against the boat's 
specifications.
