Route follows from there. In the Mediterranean, a consultant weighs distances between anchorages against the group's tolerance for time underway, checks likely sea conditions for the week booked, and builds in flexibility for wind direction, since a fixed plan rarely survives contact with real weather.

Survey is usually the first stage to take longer than anticipated. A proper condition and valuation survey involves a haul-out, a detailed inspection of hull, systems, engines and rig, and a written report that can run to dozens of pages. Scheduling the haul-out around yard availability alone can add a week or more, and the surveyor then needs time to prepare the report properly rather than rushing it.
Charter availability moves considerably across the year, and understanding why helps first-time and returning charterers alike plan bookings with realistic lead times rather than discovering late that a preferred week or vessel has already gone.
Shoulder seasons, late spring and early autumn in the Mediterranean, spring and early summer in the Caribbean, tend to offer more flexibility on both vessel choice and dates, along with generally calmer booking conditions, though weather can be less predictable at the margins of each season.
Taken together, a purchase that a buyer initially expects to complete in two or three weeks more realistically takes six to twelve weeks from accepted offer to completion, sometimes longer for larger or more complex vessels. A consultant who sets out this timeline honestly at the start, rather than promising a faster process to close the sale, is doing the buyer a genuine service.
