Safety certificate

Post by Digger »

Anyone know what is a reasonable price to pay for a safety certificate inspection on something like a 570? I'm seeing prices from £65 to £150 online.

£95 was charged to me 3 years ago. If a gas test has to be done then an additional £10 to £15 would have been applied

Had my 640 Bss done last year, cost me £90 including gas check.
I found it varied with boat yards charging more than individuals with less overheads. My chap came to the boat on the moorings as well whilst I was there, saving me the trouble of taking it to a yard.
Also make sure they will do a free retest if there is any problems you need to sort.Some do but others will charge extra to come back to check the faults have been fixed.
Pays to shop around and find out what is best for your circumstances.
