Well I brought the boat tonight. I took my friend with me who has been a marine engineer for about 20 years. She will be going to his yard at the weekend to be blacked and the few things done to get her safety certificate. I've got lots of work to do but I'm very excited a home of my own again at long last ..

She had a survey done 5 years ago.the only thing it stated on the survey is the weed hatch had corrosion but that has since been replaced.

So I would need a licence to sail her to the marina but when I am moored there do I need a licence then ?? As stated I should of done my research first but I class this as my research as the people who do it every day know best. Thanks everyone

I am just about to buy my first boat and need some help.could someone please tell me what I need as in licences ect to legally sail her I know I need a safety certificate which runs out next month but what else do I need ? Thanks in advance ???
