Surveys for Insurance Cover 

Surveys for Pre Purchase Consideration 

If you are considering purchasing a yacht, Ross can undertake a thorough survey to assess the condition of the craft, so you have a good understanding of  what issues there may be in relation to the hull, the steering, the driveline, the deck and fittings, electronics, navigation, safety gear, internal fittings, through hull fittings, seacocks, storage tanks, keels and keel bolts, running rigging and sails, radios, safety lines, anchoring, windows and hatches, bilge pumps, and a host of other items. 

Most Most marine insurance companies will require a marine survey of your boat before issuing a policy. Ross can undertake the survey, which can then be submitted to the insurance company. 

Boat Suitability Checks 

If you are thinking of buying a boat, Ross can check it for its suitability for your intended purpose. This is not a survey but a check on its condition and suitability. This can save you a lot of money and can avoid the expense of a complete and thorough survey. This service is not expensive and is charged on an hourly rate.

The Cost of Your Survey

The normal survey cost is $25 per foot. For example a 30 ft boat would cost 30X25 = $ 750 plus GST.

 

In some cases, travelling expenses may be involved, but this is not normally the case if the survey is near Sydney or the mid-North coast or in Victoria ( I am based in both states ).
