Modern Marine Surveys

Location: Stafford, VA 22554

My experience with boats started when I was twelve years old and I would go to the repair yard across the street and take boats apart to dispose of them in the dumpsters. I went to high school and enrolled in a specialty school (the only marine vocational school in NY city) where I studied oceanographic, marine power plant and vessel construction. When I graduated I was first in my class in power plant and vessel construction.



From there it was working in the repair industry for thirty-five plus years. Attending factory schools and achieving Mercruiser Master Technician as well as getting my ABYC technician certification and obtaining a United States Coast Guard 100 ton captains license; all of which has given me the opportunity to become familiar with older boats as well as new technologies.



I have had the opportunity to work and repair vessels that were wood, steel, fiberglass and aluminum including the presidential yacht “Sequoia” and one of the largest vessels that Sea Ray boats made, the 680SS which included an all glass dash. Now working with large and heavy components is difficult to do so I thought I would use my knowledge and expertise to inspect, inform and educate those that want to get into boating or know more about what they have.

“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.
