What is a Marine Survey?

 

A Marine Survey is an in-depth examination of your boat, conducted to assess its overall condition, value, and seaworthiness. Often, marine surveys are requested by insurance providers or financial underwriters to gauge the vessel's condition and valuation.

The Surveyor examines:  Structural Integrity, Electrical Systems, Propulsion, Steering, Engine Performance, Fuel System, Navigation Equipment, Electronics, Sanitation, Safety Equipment and Cosmetics. 

 

Why do I need a Marine Survey?

 

A Marine Surveyor determines if your boat meets safety criteria set forth by The American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC), Federal Code of Regulations (FCR), and National Fire Protection Association (NPA). The findings uncovered by a Marine Surveyor will determine the true value of the subject vessel and is often used as a negotiation tool. 

 

How much does a Marine Survey cost?

 

Our rates depend on which Marine Survey service you require. The Pre Purchase Survey often pays for itself when expensive repairs are uncovered and opens the door for renewed negotiations with the seller. Rates listed below are for vessels up to 50 feet, and not older than 2010. Travel fees do not apply to the Daytona Beach area.
