Location: Homestead, FL 33034

Connor Marine Engineering was founded by John Connor in 1985 as a specialist in custom marine hardware and preparation of custom performance and racing boats. In 1990, it's headquarters were moved from California to Fort Lauderdale, Fl, the hub of large powerboats. One of their most recognized projects has been the Gentry Transatlantic Challenge, which resulted in setting the world record of 62 hours 7 minutes for crossing the Atlantic from New York to England.
Connor Marine then re-designed this ocean racer into a luxury yacht designed for personal use, a very complex task. The re-fit was so successful that Showboat Magazine nominated Gentry Eagle for top honors. Even with the extra weight of luxury accomodations, she was still able to hit 73 m.p.h.
The history of Connor Marine features involvement in many of the boating industry's major successes. John Connor, the company's founder, has participated with manufacturers in developing successful hull designs throughout his carreer. He was an integral part in the development of offshore tunnel hulls and surface drives. Connor Marine's model testing projects have ranged from megayachts through race boats and performance yachts down to inflatable boats.
Why utilize Connor Marine? The answer is simple - it takes the most qualified talent to produce the greatest products. Connor Marine offers a combination of abilities that are rarely found under one roof.

“Great team of knowledgeable guys. Did a very thorough survey on a 61 Princess I was buying and found all sorts of things that I'm sure the average surveyor would miss, including a section of wet deck that will be pricey to repair. Reasonably priced and very good communication. Got the report back in 24 hours.“

Marine Surveyor FAQs

What does a marine surveyor do?

A marine surveyor is a trained professional who inspects boats and yachts to assess their condition, safety, and value. They provide detailed reports that are often required for buying or selling a vessel, obtaining insurance, or meeting regulatory requirements.

When should I hire a marine surveyor?

You should hire a marine surveyor whenever you’re purchasing a used boat, renewing insurance, after major repairs or modifications, or if you simply want an expert evaluation of your boat’s current condition and value.

What types of surveys can a marine surveyor perform?

Marine surveyors typically offer several types of surveys including pre-purchase surveys, insurance surveys, appraisal surveys, and damage surveys. Each survey is tailored to a specific need—whether it’s determining fair market value or assessing damage after an incident.

How long does a marine survey take?

The time depends on the size and complexity of the vessel. On average, a standard pre-purchase marine survey can take anywhere from 4 to 8 hours, with a detailed report delivered within a few days.

How much does a marine survey cost?

Costs vary based on the boat’s size, type, and the scope of the survey. Most marine surveyors charge a per-foot rate, typically ranging from $20 to $30 per foot, plus additional fees for haul-outs or specialized inspections.

Will a marine surveyor sea trial the boat?

Many pre-purchase surveys include a sea trial where the marine surveyor tests the boat on the water to evaluate its performance, handling, and onboard systems. Be sure to confirm whether a sea trial is included before booking.

Do I need a marine survey for boat insurance?

Most insurance companies require a current marine survey to underwrite or renew a boat insurance policy, especially for older vessels. The survey helps them understand the boat’s condition and risk factors.

How do I choose the right marine surveyor?

Look for a surveyor who is accredited by organizations like SAMS (Society of Accredited Marine Surveyors) or NAMS (National Association of Marine Surveyors), has experience with your type of boat, and provides sample reports for review.
