As a member of the Society of Accredited Marine Surveyors (SAMS) McGoldrick Marine Surveying is bound to a strict code of ethics and business practices. All surveys are conducted with consideration to the SAMS recommended content for the survey of yachts and small craft. Your survey is guaranteed to be accepted by insurance and financial underwriters, for the purpose of making an underwriting decision, or you receive a 100% refund of your survey fee.
The Condition & Valuation ("C&V") survey sometimes referred to as an Insurance survey, may also be used to refinance your boat loan. Insurance companies usually require that a C&V survey be conducted on a periodic basis e.g. Are you interested in a boat located on Long Island, but are not sure that it is worth a trip to check out?
McGoldrick Marine Surveying will visit the boat and document it with photographs or video, and prepare a brief summary of the vessel via email with our initial impression of the overall state of the vessel.The report will save you the time and expense of a trip to New York only to find out the boat does not meet your expectations.

Marine Surveying in the United States is an unregulated industry.
Anyone can call himself a marine surveyor and begin bumbling about a boat and writing a "survey".
Considering the importance a qualified survey holds to protect you, your family, and your friends from a potentially unsafe vessel, this is truly a decision where caveat emptor applies.
Not to mention the enormous financial implications of purchasing a potentially unfit vessel.
Regardless of the surveyor you choose, you should feel comfortable discussing all issues with him, his qualifications, and to have a clear understanding of the content and quality of the end product that you expect.

Our fee for a pre-purchase survey is dependent upon the length of your vessel, its age, its location, and any additional testing requested.
Tthe cost of a pre-purchase survey in terms of time, money, and effort is not trivial.
However, it is usually a very cost effective endeavor because pre-purchase surveys may identify expensive problems not observed by the buyer and possibly not by the seller either.
This situation is especially true for vessels over 10 years old.
Armed with this information, the buyer now has the facts to make a decision to walk away from a potential money pit, or to further negotiate the purchase price.

The fee for the C&V survey is based upon the length of your vessel.
The purpose of the C&V survey is to provide the insurance or loan underwriter with an evaluation of the vessel's structural integrity, fair market value and safety.
Based on this evaluation, the underwriter determines whether or not the vessel is an acceptable risk.
