Assurance For Your Investment

A marine survey is designed to inform you of the condition of a yacht or any other sea or river going vessel. There are various levels of survey dependent on whether you are an owner or a potential purchaser and there are different reasons for having one but the most common ones are:

for general condition.
for a potential purchase.
for insurance purposes.
for valuation purposes.

There are various other types of survey that I can offer and these are outlined in the other vessel surveys tab in the menu bar above.

With over 12 years experience dealing with motor and sailing yachts of all sizes, work boats and even historic ships, I can offer you a first class service and more importantly, peace of mind.
