Speedboat / buying notes
Speedboat: before you order
Bring the hull model, engine details and asking price together before arranging to see a powerboat.
Record the model year and engine configuration. Keep a source beside any speed claim; a sporty photograph or familiar model name does not establish performance. An asking price is the seller’s figure, not a valuation.
Ask for service records and ownership documents, and arrange an appropriate independent inspection. Put berth, storage, transport and running-cost quotes alongside the purchase budget.
Keep these details together
- Hull and model year
- Engine details
- Condition evidence
