Christian A. Syoen, Marine Surveyor

Location: Harrison Township, MI 48045

Growing up in the waterfront communities of Harrison Twp. and Harsens Island gave my passion for boating a jump start to say the least. I worked my way through high school and college by working at local marinas and wooden boat restoration shops, in my spare time I either helped my father in the garage restoring one of his many boat projects or I was out on the water in my boat. At the age of 23 I became a member of the Harrison Twp. Fire Department where I am now a 20 year veteran. Being a fire fighter in a waterfront community has given me first hand experience of why it is so important to have a boat that is properly equipped, maintained, and operated. During these past years I attended Wooden Boat School in Brooklyn Maine for Marine Surveying (2002), started Marine Surveying in 2003, continuously done numerous boat repair projects and restorations, maintained a fleet of 4 award winning antique wooden boats for a private estate for 10+ years, aquired my USCG 50 Ton Masters Captain License in 2012, and have been working as a fishing and waterfowl charter captain.

My years of being fully immersed in the marine industry have given me the knowledge and tools needed to assist my clients in finding the boat that is a good fit for their needs, is properly equipped to provide them many safe years of recreation out on the water, and how to get the most value for their money.

However, being a Professional Marine Surveyor means being just that – PROFESSIONAL!!! What I mean by that is that you have my promise that I will display a QUALITY WORK ETHIC while assisting my clients. I will be on time, easy to contact, return my messages/emails promptly, and have a rapid turnaround time with my survey reports. I maintain membership with the Society of Accredited Marine Surveyors (SAMS), American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC), BUC Book Appraisal Guide, and Soldboats.com. I also reference the following organizations standards when conducting my surveys: NFPA, USCG CFR, and NADA Guide. My memberships with the previously listed organizations ensures that the survey you receive will be accepted by your lending institution and your insurance provider.

Simply stated, boats are my life. When I am not out working on a survey it’s a safe bet that I am spending time on the water with my daughter showing her how to be a safe and courteous boater.

“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.
