We have long standing knowledge and experience of  many types of vessel, from small commercial fishing vessels to large privately owned superyachts. We use state of the art equipment such as moisture meters for GRP and wooden hulls, ultrasound thickness gauges for steel or aluminium structures and infra-red cameras for machinery and leak testing. After the survey inspection a detailed written report is produced for the client giving a comprehensive account of any defects, along with suggested measures for rectification.

We are Examiners for the MCA Code of Practice for Small Commercial Vessels and we offer consultancy on the MCA Large Yacht Code (for vessels over 24 metres Load Line length). As Appointed Tonnage Surveyors for the UK, Eire and the Red Ensign group Registers of Shipping we can assist with registration under the British and Irish Flags.   

Professional Institution memberships include the YDSA, MECAL and the IIMS. We operate under the Code of Practice for Surveyors. We carry full Professional Indemnity and Public Liability insurance for the protection of our clients and undertake regular Continuous Professional Development.

Whether you are a commercial yacht Captain, own a small cabin cruiser, or are thinking of buying a boat, please do not hesitate to contact us to discuss your requirements further.   The links on this page give a more detailed description of who we are and the services that we can provide.
