UK Yacht Surveyor for Damage Reports working in Greece

A Damage Survey is usually commissioned by a specific insurance company as part of a claim investigation. Its function is to establish the extent of the damage and to give an estimate of the cost of repair. In such circumstances, the Surveyor acts as the Underwriter's eyes and ears. The Surveyor works in liaison with the insured, the repair facility and all the relevant participants.

Our Pre purchase survey report!


Tailored for the intended purchase of a vessel and designed to allow you to make an informed and balanced purchase decision. Our Pre Purchase Survey includes all the major elements a full condition survey covers, with the inclusion of additional comment upon the general maintenance requirements, serviceability and cosmetic appearance of the vessel and equipment and comment upon exceptional or outstandingly good or bad items and an independent valuation as a valuable second opinion for peace of mind.

Whilst such items may not affect the structural integrity of the vessel these may have an impact upon market desirability and/or valuation of the vessel and therefore represent important considerations for a prospective purchaser.

Our pre purchase survey report will give you a clear and realistic assessment of the vessel with detailed breakdown of recommendations and action points clearly graded as essential, recommended and advisory and will serve as a useful ongoing maintenance manual for your vessel.
