Various surveys available The purpose of a survey is to determine the condition of a vessel's structure and equipment, and to approximate its value. Most surveys are done for a specific purpose, such as insurance, financing, pre purchase, or are needed as a result of a loss from damage, theft, or accident. As a potential buyer or owner the survey can assist you in determining whether the vessel is in a safe and seaworthy condition.
Barring special conditions such as an accident a survey is often required every 4 to 5 years by insurance companies. Pre Purchase Survey A Pre purchase survey is a (C&V) survey with a complete inspection of the hull, including the bottom and in most cases should include a sea trial. This is the most complete survey and is recommended when purchasing a used vessel.
The overall condition of the vessel, equipment, and engines will be assessed. This inspection will also determine the fair market value and condition of the vessel. Ultrasound Survey Ultrasound equipment is used to evaluate the vessels hull components condition, density, and thickness.
