The BoatReady process
How it works
BoatReady UK turns a used-boat viewing into a structured, recorded process you can act on with confidence.
From advert to decision
A clear route through every viewing
Step 2
Add the boat and the viewing details
Record make, model, year, engine, trailer, asking price, seller details and where you are viewing.
Step 3
Answer a few setup questions
Tell us the boat type and whether it has an outboard, inboard or sterndrive, tubes, a cabin, a trailer, shore power, gas appliances or a planned sea trial. Only relevant sections are included.
Step 4
Work through the guided inspection
One question at a time, with pass, concern, fail, not checked and not applicable, plus photographs, notes, repair estimates and professional-check flags.
Step 5
Enter your budget and costs
Add survey, engineer, transport, service, safety equipment, insurance or storage allowances and a contingency, then see the totals update immediately.
Step 6
Generate your buyer report
Preview the report, download it as a PDF, and regenerate it whenever you update the inspection.
Important — please read
BoatReady UK helps users organise their own observations when viewing a used boat. It is not a marine survey, mechanical inspection, valuation, legal check, finance check or guarantee that defects will be identified. Boat condition, safety and documentation should be assessed by appropriately qualified professionals before purchase.
