How often should I have my boat inspected?
We recommend an annual vessel safety inspection at minimum. Rigging inspections should be done annually for actively sailed boats, and every 2-3 years for cruising sailboats. Electrical system surveys are recommended every 2-3 years or after any electrical work. If you're buying a used boat, always get a pre-purchase survey.
