Why Choose Us for Your Pre-Purchase Survey?

​

At Sea Captain Marine Surveyor, we pride ourselves on our expertise and professionalism in conducting Pre-Purchase Surveys.

​

Comprehensive Inspection Process

Pre-Purchase Surveys can take up to six hours to complete and produce a multi-page report on the vessel. This survey can also be completed in multiple stages for a separate price. 

 

Our expert Marine Surveyor will comprehensively inspect the vessel in the water, haul out the boat and examine the hull, propeller, and rudder. Finally, we do a sea trail where we test the engine and, if a sailing vessel, pull the sails out. This is a comprehensive type of inspection and is strongly advised when purchasing a new or used boat. It is a complete inspection of the vessel to ascertain its condition as to overall operational capability.

​

Detailed Reports for Informed Decision-Making

​

Following the inspection, we provide a detailed report which includes an out-of-the-water inspection of the running gear and a sounding of the hull, an in-depth inspection of the whole interior structure, where accessible, including the deck, cabin, machinery spaces, electrical system, plumbing, safety equipment, findings and recommendations. It also indicates the estimated local market value based on condition and general maintenance. We believe in transparency and clarity, empowering you with the information you need to negotiate confidently or walk away from a potential purchase if necessary.
