Do I need any inspections for my 15+ meter recreational yacht with Polish registration?

YES, You need 2 technical inspections every 5 years. But boats less than 10 years old are exempt

A Class Certificate  issued after technical survey is required

The Class Certificate is a document certifying seaworthiness of a seagoing yacht in technical terms. The Yacht, its devices and equipment are subject to technical supervision of their compliance with requirements regarding construction, reconstruction, equipment, repairs and technical inspections.

A Yacht Safety Certificate is an obligatory requirement for seagoing recreational yachts of more than 15 m in length.

Your 15+ meter yacht needs a technical inspection and check of safety gear at year 1 of operation, again after year 2, and after year 5.

The safety gear checks can be reduced to once every 5 years if the owner develops and implements an independent safety inspection program.

Recreational yachts with CE certificates less than 10 years old are exempt from the Class Certificate.
