Survey Services

Pre-Purchase Survey

This is the most comprehensive type of survey and is strongly advised when purchasing a new or used yacht. It is a complete inspection of the vessel to ascertain its condition as to overall operational capability.Most lenders will require a Pre-Purchase Survey before considering a loan and most insurance companies will require it before they consider coverage for older vessels.The pre-purchase survey report includes: operations of all equipment and systems while the vessel is in water (electrical systems, navigation, spars and rigging, propulsion system, fuel system, all machinery and electronics), an out of water inspection of the running gear and a sounding of hull, complete inspection of the whole interior structure where accessible. An extensive sea trial should be included as an essential part in purchasing a vessel. Estimated local market value based on condition and general maintenance, findings and recommendations. Your survey needs to take place just prior to the purchase, do not use a previous survey, things change.This report is issued in compliance with boating safety standards set by the American Boat and Yacht Council, (ABYC), the US Coast Guard Federal Regulations, (CFR), and The National Fire Protection Agency, (NFPA).

Insurance Survey This survey is performed so that the insurance company can determine whether or not the vessel is an acceptable risk. They are interested in structural integrity and safety for its intended use. Most insurance companies require a survey on older boats. They will also want to know the vessels fair market value. Damage surveys are often required by an insurance company after a loss has been incurred due to an accident or other event.

An engine survey may be conducted the same day as our survey.• Cabin and engine keys or lock combination made available.• All listed equipment aboard or nearby for inspection.• All the stowage compartments should be emptied of personal or miscellaneous items that are not part of the vessel’s inventory.• Registration papers, documentation papers and vessel manuals, if any, should be aboard.
