Visual weld inspection along seams, frames and the keel-to-hull joint for porosity and cracking. Plate deformation and panting. Pitting and crevice corrosion at the waterline, inside the bilge and under fittings.
Barrier-coat and antifouling condition (bare aluminium must never sit under copper antifouling). Through-hulls and seacocks, isolated correctly. Shaft, cutlass bearing, rudder bearing, anode wear.
Engine condition visual inspection. Coolant, oil, belt condition. Impeller, heat exchanger. Fuel system and tanks. Exhaust system condition.
Distribution panel inspection. Circuit protection check. Battery condition and capacity. Navigation lights. Shore power inlet. Bilge pumps.

A = Critical (safety or major repair). B = Significant (address within 12 months). C = Advisory (monitor). Every finding referenced to ABYC standard.
Every A and B finding includes a realistic cost estimate for repair in Turkey. Used directly in price negotiation, typically recovers the survey fee many times over.
Current market value opinion based on survey findings, vessel age, specification, and 2026 Turkish market data. Separate from asking price, gives you negotiating baseline.
