What certification means
WakeBid personally documents the information shown in the Certified Report during an in-person inspection.
Independent documentation
A WakeBid representative documents the watercraft in person.
More detailed listings
Certified listings show far more information than a typical ad.
Clear condition reporting
What was observed is written down, not implied.
More transparency
You read the report before you decide, not after.
FOR BUYERS
Read what was documented before you travel, ask better questions, and know what you're buying.
FOR SELLERS
Show buyers your ski was independently documented, and stand out with a Certified Report on your listing.
What certification does not mean
WakeBid Certified is not a warranty or guarantee. A watercraft may develop mechanical or electrical problems after inspection. Buyers should still perform their own inspection and due diligence before purchasing.
