01 / BUYING

surveys

Before you commit, get an independent assessment of your next boat—and the evidence to buy at the asking price, negotiate a reduced price, budget for repairs or decide to walk away.

Know its true condition before you commit.

Your middle Shannon survey.
Questions answered.

Useful details for planning your survey, access and next steps.

Which locations do our Shannon Harbour surveyors cover?

Shannon Maritime covers Shannon Harbour, Shannonbridge, Banagher and Ballinasloe. Choose your local area or venue, add the berth and use the calendar to find your survey day. For boats elsewhere, book through the main site.

Can I book at Ballinasloe’s River Suck harbour?

Yes. Choose Ballinasloe and River Suck harbour, then add your berth. The fee calculator and calendar make arranging a local motorboat survey straightforward.

Which Banagher locations can I choose?

The public harbour, Carrickcraft, Silver Line, Riverly and Shamrock Marina are all listed. Just pick yours, add the berth and complete your booking details.

Can you attend a canal boat at Shannon Harbour?

Yes. Choose the supported vessel type and Shannon Harbour’s Grand Canal harbour and dry docks entry. Add the berth or dock position where your boat will be ready for the visit.

How do I arrange a pre-purchase survey near Shannonbridge?

Enter your boat’s length in the calculator, select an available date and choose Shannonbridge as the local area. Add your berth and any questions you would like the survey to address.

Do I need a deposit for a middle Shannon survey?

No deposit is required. Payment is due when the survey is completed. Your booking reference confirms the date, so you can plan for your surveyor’s visit.

Does my boat need to be lifted out before the survey?

If your survey needs the hull inspected out of the water, the owner is responsible for booking the haul-out with the marina or boatyard. Please arrange and confirm the lift-out before booking your survey date, so the boat is ready when your surveyor arrives. An unconfirmed haul-out can limit what can be inspected and what your survey report can cover.
