Is a in-water survey needed with out-of-water for pre-purchase survey

Darith · 2023-03-29 18:37:29

Hello, Arranging a survey and the agent lifted the boat while there was a weather window. So i will now need to organise hoses etc. to test engine out of water. So is a in-water survey of boat including engine really advisable or neccessary at this stage if i can get the engine to run out-of-water? David.

Yes, It’s definitely preferable but it may just depend on the level of €€€ or the agent.
