CapEx scanner on the listing
Paste the listing text, or enter length and year. The scanner flags what the broker left unsaid and adds a planning band for hidden year-1 CapEx on top of the asking price. It is not a yard quote, not the €49 human listing review, and not the annual ownership calculator.

3. Questions for the broker
Seller checklist
Copy the list and send it through Boat24 or YachtWorld before any deposit leaves your account.
- When was the standing rigging last fully replaced? Please share invoices and wire/rod type.
- When was the saildrive diaphragm last changed? Yard and date of the last job?
- Age and condition of main and genoa - maker, year, visible wear?
- Is there teak? When was it last re-caulked or partly renewed? Any deck moisture map?
- Engine hours, last oil analysis, heat exchanger and exhaust elbow condition - invoices for the last 24 months?
- Age of service batteries, plotter/autopilot generation, liferaft and AIS - service intervals and certificates?
How this is calculated
Length from 8.5 to 16.0 m scales the bands mildly. Standing rigging follows the 10-12 year insurer logic. The saildrive diaphragm sits near seven years. Sails, teak/sealing, diesel above about 2,000 hours, and batteries/electronics/safety fill the other nodes. Status ok or na zeroes the line. due and unstated put the planning band into year-1 CapEx. VAT cues are read but do not enter the euro total.

FAQ
- Is this a yard price?
- No. It is a rough guide for 2026 planning. Get yard quotes before you commit to the purchase.
- What does Unstated in Ad mean?
- The boat's age suggests the node may be due, yet the listing says nothing. Set the band aside as a reserve or ask for invoices.
- Is this the €49 listing review?
- No. The scanner is a free planning tool. The €49 review is a separate service: a person reads one listing and sends a written result within 48 hours.
- Is this annual ownership cost?
- No. This covers hidden year-1 CapEx on top of the purchase price. Berth, insurance and winter storage belong to the ownership cost calculator.
