Yacht Buying Process

Whether it’s your first time or you are a pro at buying boats, we will help you throughout the buying process. We follow the guidelines shared by the California Yacht Broker Association to protect the seller and the buyer. Before you make an offer, you can check the vessel but cannot turn on any systems. You can’t even take the yacht out for a spin to see how it works. 

How to Make an Offer?

Once you have found a nice option for your needs, we will work with you to help you determine if the vessel is the one that you are interested in. Using the CYBA Purchase Agreement, you will have to make a formal letter. You can negotiate the price with the seller and sign it when you are sure about making the purchase. 

Within the agreement, there are contingencies that state that the buyer has the right to take a sea trial, perform a mechanical survey, and a marine survey. It’s up to you if you want to add financing contingency too. It also states that the buyer has the right to step out of the deal when any of these contingencies are completed and will get the full deposit back. 

While taking the sea trial, you can test the complete system including how the vessel handles underway. On getting a good idea of whether the boat is what you wanted it to be or not, you can make the final decision of making the purchase or not. If you decide to move forward with the purchase, you can move ahead with the marine survey and mechanical survey. 

Completing the Purchase

When you have approved the sea trial and accepted the surveys, you are ready to buy a yacht in San Diego. Once the funds are transferred to the seller’s account, you become the owner of the yacht.
