Boat Pre Purchase Inspection In San Diego

We perform in-depth mechanical, electrical & structural inspections on a boat, yacht, or sailboat. Our highly experienced engineers and technicians are prepared to conduct the pre-purchase inspection and prepare a detailed report of all that’s working fine and all that requires repair on a given vessel.

Why Do I Need A Marine Pre Purchase Inspection?

A mechanical inspection is a crucial part of the pre-purchase process of any powerboat, since it will deal with the integrity of the most expensive asset of the vessel: The engine. 

Only by doing a thorough survey, you will ensure you are really getting what you paid for and finding out exactly how many dollars worth of repair you will have to spend after the acquisition.

Lukas and Royal Marine serviced my Yamaha outboards and various pumps and electrical systems on my boat. I found their communication and work to be excellent and I will continue to use them for all my maintenance needs going forward.

It was a pretty seamless experience. I had a lot of moving parts and pieces. Lucas and his team helped me accomplish my goals in a professional and timely matter. I would highly recommend them for any boat service. I had his team do an engine swap on the starboard engine, out drive service, replacing all 4 manifolds, and complete service to the port engine. His recommendations were very helpful as well. I will be using them for any future repairs and maintenance. I cant recommend them enough! 10/07/2024

Absolutely Outstanding! Honest, dependable and shows up on time ready to work. I have a 1988 Trojan 38’ Pleasure Cruiser with very hard to reach twin 350 V8s. Lukas and his team completed several repairs and general maintenance to keep my boat reliable. Equally important: every estimate was accurate in required parts, time and cost. ROYAL MARINE is competitively priced and certainly the best value. 🌴🦅
