Services
Wilson Yacht Survey and Damage Claims (WYSDC) is capable and experienced with providing Substitute Yacht Custodians to support vessel arrest.
Arrest of a vessel is part of the process by which an Admiralty Court gains jurisdiction over the subject matter of a law suit.
These lawsuits are known as "in rem" actions meaning that the action is again a "thing" rather than a person.
Generally, the vessel, itself, is responsible for payment of liens, mortgages or any other maritime lien that may arise.

Now that you have decided to execute a vessel survey here are some tips to help minimize expenses while maximizing your survey content.
A surveyor can only inspect what he has access to.
Time and additional expense can be saved by preparing the vessel for inspection and by making the vessel more accessible.
If you are the seller or broker, arrange to present a clean, shipshape boat, and have all vessel documents available and miscellaneous gear ready.
If you are the buyer, work with the owner or broker to follow these guidelines for survey preparation.

A survey is more than a check list or inventory list which is why no two vessel surveys are the same.
Therefore the cost of a marine survey has many variables in arriving at a fair price, including but not limited to the size and type of survey, type of vessel, the materials it was constructed from, the type of work required of the surveyor and the location of the vessel.
The vessel condition and the age of the vessel is also considered.
Evidently it takes much longer to survey a 15 year old boat with deferred maintenance than a three your old vessel in Bristol condition.
