Anchor House Marine Surveys

The term 'classic yacht' refers to a wide variety of yacht types including wood and steel yachts from the turn of the 20th century, through the golden age of yachting and up to the 1970s with its chic motor yacht designs. 

 

In the case of wooden and steel yachts, because of the way they are constructed, the structural inspection is the most important part of the survey and will naturally take longer than a GRP yacht to undertake.

​

In some cases, the machinery or rigging installations may require an inspection by independent specialists, but this will depend on the yacht's size and specification.

​

We are classic yacht specialists with decades of experience and knowledge of the various traditional building methods and styles, all of which add up to make these older vessels such wonderful creations.​
