Yacht & Sailboat History Check
Yachts and sailboats often carry the longest ownership chains and the most complex import histories of any watercraft. Get the full picture before survey.
What we check, specific to yachts & sailboats
Sailboats are frequently imported, re-registered and passed through syndicates or clubs. Our checks are built for that longer, more complex history.
Import history
Many yachts arrive via import from Europe, the US or NZ — we trace the compliance and import trail on the hull.
Finance owing
Yachts are commonly financed or part-owned through syndicates. We confirm there's nothing owing before you pay a deposit.
Full ownership chain
Longer ownership histories are common with yachts — we map every registered owner we can find, not just the last one.
