## What is Boat Inspector?

Boat Inspector guides sailors and boat buyers through a thorough, professional vessel inspection — the kind that saves you from expensive surprises after settlement.

Whether you're surveying a potential purchase or preparing your own boat for sale, Boat Inspector takes you through 11 inspection categories and over 100 checkpoints, from hull osmosis and keel bolts to chainplates, standing rigging, engine condition, and safety equipment.

THOROUGH & STRUCTURED
Each inspection is organised across 11 professional categories: Hull & Topsides, Deck & Cockpit, Rig, Sails, Engine, Electrical, Bilge & Through-hulls, Interior, Plumbing, Safety, and Documentation — the same structure used by professional marine surveyors.

CAPTURE EVERYTHING
Rate each item as OK, Monitor, or Dealbreaker. Add free-text notes per item. Attach photos directly to individual checkpoints so you always know exactly what you were looking at.

COMPARE MULTIPLE BOATS
Each inspection is tied to a specific vessel, so you can review and compare multiple candidates side by side. Stop trying to remember which boat had the soft deck or the weeping keel bolts.

BUILT FOR BOATYARDS
Boat Inspector works fully offline — no signal required in the boatyard or on the hard. Your data stays on your device.

SHARE YOUR FINDINGS
Generate a clean PDF summary report from any completed inspection. Share it with your partner, broker, or marine surveyor with a single tap.

The tool you wish you'd had before you bought the wrong boat.
