Motor Yacht Surveys
BoatSure. The Full Condition or Insurance Survey.
This is the most comprehensive and detailed level of survey inspection covering all aspects of the YDSA Full Condition Survey and normal Insurance Company requirements.
This is a non-destructive survey of all accessible areas, and equipment as specified, per the terms, scope and limitations of survey, to provide an opinion on the condition and integrity of the hull and structure of the vessel and her equipment. Permission must be given by the owner for the removal of sample areas of antifouling and epoxy coatings in order to make a visual inspection for osmotic conditions. The report details all items inspected and highlights defects and recommendations for rectification or further investigation. The principal areas covered in the scope of the survey, as applicable are...
BoatBuy. The Pre-Purchase Inspection.
Specifically for the intended purchase of a vessel and includes all major elements of the Full Condition Survey, with the addition of additional comment upon the maintenance requirements and cosmetic appearance of the vessel and equipment and comment upon exceptional or outstandingly good items. Whilst such items may not effect the structural integrity of the vessel these may have an impact upon market desireablity or valuation and therefore represent important considerations for a prospective purchaser.
Engine Check. Engine Oil Analysis.
Full engine and machinery surveys, oil analysis tests and service history verification can be arranged in conjunction with associate specialists.
BoatSound. Hull & Structure Inspection.

Damage Survey and Special Instructions.
A specific survey, often for insurance purposes, limited to the inspection and assessment of damaged areas of the vessel, specific failures or specific instructions covering areas of concern i.e. yard repairs or installation of equipment etc. The report includes assessment of cause and effect and recommendations for repair or further investigation.
BoatValue. Market Valuation.
An idependant market valuation statement involving a summary inspection of the vessel often required for finance or insurance or following a major refit.
Sea Trials.
Only so much can be assessed statically or ashore and there are significant benefits of a sea trial to measure the boats performance and to reinforce the findings or recommendations from the survey inspection.
BoatNew. Commissioning and new Boat Delivery Checks.
