What should you expect -
We provide a professionally prepared report in a timely manner that is
accepted by all major insurance carriers and financial institutions. A thorough
inspection will not be rushed; For information on how long it will take or how
much it will cost, we invite you to call and discuss with us your needs and
what type of boat it is to be examined. More information can be seen on the
Services Page and/or request an online brochure at -

What should the surveyor expect -
To avoid additional expense and wasted time on a boat Condition & Value or
a Pre-Purchase Survey - the boat's Skipper should have the boat ready for
inspection with all compartments open and easily accessible.
Arrange to present a clean, shipshape boat, and have all papers and
miscellaneous documents, gear and safety items ready for inspection.
Make arrangements to have the marina haul out the boat for bottom
inspection. Cabins and lockers should be cleared of all miscellaneous gear.
Well conducted surveys can provide good information on the condition of the
vessel of only areas that are accessible as it exists at the time of the
inspection.
The surveyor should never be asked to prepare a boat or dismantle
components. The surveyor can report on only what is accessible.
