The Tesla Model S isn’t the first truly autonomous boat on the road and available for sale to the public. We’re not there yet, just as a society.

What Are Boat Surveys And What Do They Cover?

Only after an offer has been made and accepted on a boat, can the process of evaluation begin in earnest. A variety of surveys are usually scheduled including an in-water survey, a haul-out/bottom survey, an engine survey and the sea trial (test drive), which is the test drive and usually a part of the survey done on the same day.

Purchasing a boat is a process that shares some similarities to buying a home or car, but with some important differences. While buying a new boat is fairly straightforward, 80% of boats for sale today are pre-owned. That makes the purchase more complicated, because you’ll need to ascertain the condition of a used boat in order to arrive at a fair market value on a vessel that may have been in use for multiple decades. This is where the boat survey becomes a critical part of the boat buying process.
