Survey Services:

As a Professional Marine Surveyor, and a Certified Marine Investigator we have the expertise to provide a comprehensive inspection of your boat. We will evaluate many different aspects of the boat's condition as well as the systems on board to provide you a detailed assessment. After completing the boat survey, we will provide you with a comprehensive written survey report detailing my findings and listing of all discovered defects found on the boat. Our report will include digital photographs and information to show you specifically where the potential problems are located. I will also include in my report recommendations regarding required repairs that must be performed for the boat to be considered safe to operate, and recommendations on other repairs to ensure the boat meets accepted standards for reliable function and operation. All boats are inspected to meet standards set by the U.S.C.G. (United Stated Coast Guard), NFPA (National Fire Protection Agency) & A.B.Y.C. (American Boat & Yacht Council). We also provide Thermal Imaging and Ultrasound Hull Testing.
