When buying or selling a boat, ensuring it’s in optimal condition is crucial for making an informed decision. Van der Vliet Marine provides expert boat surveyor services that adhere to industry standards such as ABYC, NFPA, and USCG CFR’s, using the latest inspection techniques and software to deliver comprehensive and timely survey reports. The range of surveys, including pre-purchase boat inspection, condition and valuation surveys, and remote purchase surveys, help you make the right choices, whether you're purchasing, selling, insuring, or appraising a vessel.
Why Hire a Professional Boat Surveyor?
Purchasing a boat is a significant investment, and getting a detailed and accurate report about the boat’s condition is vital for avoiding expensive repairs down the line. A professional boat surveyor like Van der Vliet Marine not only inspects the physical condition of the boat but also evaluates its safety, compliance, and overall performance. I offer a Boat PrePurchase Surveyor service that provides you with a clear understanding of any potential risks or hidden issues before committing to a purchase.
When you hire a professional pre-purchase marine surveyor, you're safeguarding your investment and ensuring that you won't be caught off-guard by unexpected problems.
Benefits of Surveyor Services
Detailed Inspection
Every corner of the boat, from the hull to the engines, electronics, and safety equipment, is thoroughly inspected to detect issues that might not be visible to the untrained eye.
Timely Reports
Using the latest software and inspection techniques, I deliver a detailed and timely report, allowing you to make swift, informed decisions.
Remote Purchase Survey
Can’t be there in person? I offer remote purchase surveys to accommodate busy schedules or distant transactions, providing peace of mind without having to travel.
What to Expect from a Boat PrePurchase Surveyor?
A Boat PrePurchase Surveyor does much more than a simple visual inspection. We provide a deep dive into the boat’s systems, functionality, and overall seaworthiness. At Van der Vliet Marine Survey, our boat surveyor services include the following:
Structural Integrity: A thorough assessment of the hull, deck, and superstructure for any signs of damage, weakness, or repairs that may affect the vessel’s safety.
Mechanical Systems: Evaluation of the engine(s), fuel system, exhaust system, and cooling system, ensuring that everything is operating efficiently.
Electrical Systems: I inspect the wiring, battery, and all electrical components for compliance with industry safety standards.
Plumbing and Safety Equipment: A check of the bilge pumps, water tanks, and firefighting and lifesaving equipment to make sure they meet industry standards and regulatory requirements.
Sail and Rigging Inspection: For sailboats, I carefully examine the condition of sails, standing and running rigging (from the deck only), and associated components to ensure they are in working order.
By conducting a comprehensive pre-purchase survey, I provide you with all the facts, so you can make a confident decision.
