Insurance Survey

A boat insurance survey will typically be requested by your insurance company to determine whether or not the vessel is an acceptable risk. They are interested in the structural integrity, safety for the vessels intended use, and the vessel's fair market and replacement value. Typically the sea trial and haul out is not required, but check with your insurance company for specific requirements. The marine insurance survey is a limited form of survey to assist insurance underwriters in making underwriting decisions. The survey has two main purposes which is to identify the vessel, equipment, condition and general value and to also identify defects, damages or hazardous conditions that pose a potential threat to the safety of the vessel and passengers and any conditions that could result in loss or damage. Insurance surveys are not the same a other marine surveys such as a pre purchase marine survey. If you are in need of a Marine Surveyor in Florida, contact us to discuss your specific needs. Insurance Survey Rate: $18 - $22 per foot ($650 minimum, travel fees may apply)

What is a Marine Survey?

A marine survey is a comprehensive inspection of your vessel with the purpose of determining its condition, value, and seaworthiness. The survey may be requested by your insurance provider or financial underwriters to determine condition and value.

Why do I need a Marine Survey?

The Surveyor will determine 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 the inspection will determine the fair market 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 service you require. The pre purchase survey often pays for itself when big ticket repairs are uncovered and open the door for renewed negotiations with the seller. Although we service all areas of Florida and Georgia, additional costs may apply for travel, and/or lodging if required. Rates listed below are for vessels up to 50 feet, and not older than 2010.
